    you will be very pleased to know NONE of my 4 sisters will be here.. 2 are clean freaks, 1 is a pig but lives at home and the other has no internet access and would find this all extremely sad.

    My mother's not interested either..

  • Though I love her to bits I wouldn't want my sister on here. She is a controlling person and my XH said she was the cause of most of our problems as she tried controlling me all the time. I now manage her very effectively and we get on like a house on fire, just a shame it took me 40 years or more to be able to do this!!
    Sexym - my love, that is sooooooooooo unreasonable, hugs to you and GET ON TO YOUR UNION AGAIN!! Like others of said i hope you've kept a diary of this utter rubbish you've been given by the school. They wouldn't last a second in the private sector behaving in such an appalling manner in any sort of managerial role

    You can tell when I'm posting at work, all the colours look different. Waiting on the carpenter, can't help feeling thats the wrong way round!

  • sexymouse back to the union, love. they are taking the p1ss. You cannot be treated like this, this management team are completely bonkers. 4.30 is not an appropriate time to start a meeting like this, and it is completely unreasonable to cancel and rearrange at such short notice. They have to pass you, anyway, because however stupid they are, they must realise that anyone taking a look at your experiences if you complain would wipe the floor with them.
    And now I'm ranting! soappie is right, write it all down.

    The whole situation is so unreasonable. I hope you are recording all of this in a diary and that the union have the whole picture. If your union rep is not able to help go higher. I went to the union (NAS/UWT) head office in the end when I was being bullied at work. I send you my hugs and prayers that someone sorts out this situation for you.
    Sexy - hugs. And total agreement with all of the above.:mad:

    Soappie I will be asking to see the manager tomorrow and make a formal complaint. Depending on what happens I may involve the police.

    Hi Lisa ( my Sister who's not neveah )

    Just start small and work your way up, i know you won't have internet now until the morning but just try level 1 to start . Once you get into it it gets quicker and easier. To get the list on to your post you copy it from page 1, click go advanced in the answer box thingy and paste it. Good luck xx

    Hi Lisa welcome to the mad house. You must have a lovely family Holly. I'm not telling any of mine about here otherwise I can't have a go at them :rotfl:

    We found a pooch that we like this time. She is a young stray collie. She needs to be assessed first as she has just come in. Hopefully she will be suitable for us. The big dog is so quiet. I am sure he misses his friend.

    Now to make dinner and do a bit of flying in between.

    My favourite I love collies they are the best. mine is great. He's the most loving dog and a fab footballer we have asked Rangers if they are interested in signing him. :rotfl:What type of collie is she ??? My Mr Mac is a beardie a lot of grooming but we love him he's sooooo clever. Hope all works out for you x

    I hope you get it resolved v. quickly boddy - it must be quite a worry - first the curtains not being opened etc. and now things going missing - it's not fair on the old folk.. they still deserve dignity and care even though they may not be all there...

    I am really tired this evening. I think I may well be in bed and asleep by 9.30pm...

    Evening.

    Two kids bathed, hair washed and in bed, one is rather warm and the other has an earache.

    Done really well with the flying and have even hoovered the kids rooms.

    Time for a list update and then G&S with some cards. DH is out at his work's Christmas party and staying out so that'll be me getting up if the kids are unwell (actually what am I on about, I'd be getting up if he was here - doh!)

    Toots hope the decorating is going ok and that you are ok too.

    Boddy hugs

    SexyI'm so sorry things are bad again at school. I really think you need an exit strategy that place sounds a nightmare. I have no idea how it works that schools take NQTs but if there is a list they should be off it! Thinking of you xx
