the impossible

there is only so much a person can take.

as a few of u may know, i've been teaching the monday monsters and thursday terrors for a long time. and laterly beacuse of concert practise in laselle, i've finally dropped them. This is e beginning of the story...

friday
- The grandfather calls me and screams abuses and threatens my living hood. they accused me of being irresponsible. OF sabotaging their children's exam. for not "passing " them the exam pcs. After which i already told u, ur kids and husband upteen times that i would be there on your exam morning and have it ready for you like e previous years. Since u insisted that something could crop up last min for me, i offered to have it courierd to you this weekend. And AFTER you told me to buy it 2nd hand from my student. You managed to buy it and didn't even call me to inform me.... If i had really wanted to be nasty, i could have just written in to withdraw your kids right?

sat
- you told "me of discrepancies in the school fees. "the start of 4 lessons or end of 4 lesson problems..." IT IS MY FUCKING bloody fault that i didn't keep a record on my end. There were definately more than a handful of lessons that you kids misplaced the lesson books. WHICH you were aware of. SO i only calculated lessons that were recorded. ALL my other students are on a monthly basis. Besides NONE of them have ever misplace ANY lesson record book one single lesson or ANY other books used during lesson. SO why dun you go dig for the scraps of paper as WELL HUHHUHUH!?!?

Monday
- continual shouts and rants on the same problem. there really is no point in me explaining anymore.

- should i give you any extra lessons, you should pay for iot rite?! why would i tell you it's ok? and even if u came to my house for the recital. it was 2 hours plus an extra lesson. IF i only ask for 2 lessons of 1 hour fees. YOU are getting a better deal. AND the recital is not for ME hello....

i WILL return u e money. not beacuse i'm guilty of cheating you. because i don't Fucking wan you to EVER EVER call me again. SO as i am NEEDED to go up to your place PERSONALLY to return you the $300. I will be armed with a voice recorder as huiying kindly advised. Pls feel free to rant at me again. i will not be so kind as to just bitch it off this time.

It is rather sad that it has come to this. the poor kid's exam is tom. i knew that the family was like that but didn't occur to me that i will be at the recieveing end of this treatment for i hve taught them for such a long time.

Thanks for bitching with me on this one for i am irresponsible, dishonest and a cheat, thief....yata yata....only thing short is calling me a slut then i would be a complete set. you know , there is a reason why i didn't manage to introduce any teacher to you way before even all this hooha started....

;)

Good riddance.......
