Cog....i bet you have NEVER ONCE complained about a woman/male/visible minority driver, an old person paying for groceries with nickels. no. you are perfect.

give us a break.

a persons sex shouldn't have anything to do with their ability to do a job correctly or well. either they can do it, or not.

and in the matter of age, would you trust a 10 year old to drive a bus full of people, or a 60 year old with plenty of driving experience.

May i remind you, that you are in violation of posting policies??

Yeah cut the guy some slack. Sometimes talking about issues on the net can help you work through problems.

I'd say the new DOS is incompetent, but she's the owner so get used to it. You have two choices, deal with it or move on at your earliest convenience.

And she's owner now and she needs to get used to the fact that most teachers will not like her.

I promised myself I would not add further comment, however I can't help myself because:

"The New Guy", you've never asked for help or advice, you only expressed a need to vent. Fair enough, however IMHO when you post here on Dave's you have to expect your virtual colleagues to offer it. Out of curiosity, did you take any of it to heart? Will you try it?

I jumped on you because for me personally your words �she is only 23, and has no interpersonal skills� �She is the classic model of the "Ice Queen" �she is not even capable of taking orders at KFC� and �some power-drunk woman 18 years my junior� ARE �abusive, slanderous, hateful, and threatening�.

And now as mentioned before, you were not asking for my advice, so I quietly bow out of this conversation for good. I hope things work out for you The New Guy and that you will become a valued contributor to Dave�s.

'....a sexist, ageist, illiterate, 41-year-old language mill loser. No wonder you were passed over for the post of DOS! '

Moderators! Are you awake? You've canned other threads for far less libellous stuff than this!

Cognition.... you must be a sad lonely individual with nothing going on in your life, but to come here and harrass ppl, pick on grammar mistakes(LAME) and just basically make threads unpleasant.

You know nothing about me, and to call me a 41 year old language
mill loser (OOPS YOU FORGOT THE WORD SCHOOL IN THERE BETWEEN LANGUAGE AND MILL) what does that say about your integrity? right back at ya.

I wonder if you are even a teacher yourself or a 40+ year old guy living in your parents basement, and rocking your jolly by posting meaningless crap on websites.

i'm going to request this thread locked no thanks to YOU.

Wow, this is fun.

Cognition, are you the new guy's DOS in disguise? Shocked

But seriously- the issue of how to deal with a difficult DOS is serious and teaching related.

Probably the issue of how to deal with a younger DOS is as well.

Or we could just call each other names- probably much more productive...

Best,
Justin
