| If this actually is a real teacher from the school, then, based on their grammatical mistakes, they've just proved the point of Alex regarding their quality. There are times when schools and their directors should just learn to bite their tongue and take negative criticism on the chin. The effect of their input here has been to prolong this thread, the Streisand effect in action! |

I totally agree. However, teachers have been known to over exaggerate and blow minor grievances into an all consuming apocalypse. I tend to take everything said on all sides with a healthy pinch of salt.
"My salary was a day late! They asked me to cover a class! This school is evil! The worst place in the world! They should be reported to the war crimes committee! The school and everyone in it should be closed down!"
I'm sure we have all met the odd teacher who simply cannot handle life and explode in a fit of righteous indignation over their perceived maltreatment and persecution. |

If I had a kopek for every time I'd seen a teacher make such a complaint, I'd be an oligarch by now. |

I know. It's up there with getting mad when a student cancels
late AND you still get paid for it anyway.
The human heart works in truly mysterious ways. Just as well the Politburo plans to abolish all emotion after the world take-over. |
