So. The woman who spearheaded the campaign to get me released - or to not have my contract renewed (lovely euphamism for FIRED) sat down next to me in Study Hall today.
Without any trace of irony in her voice at all, she said, "So, Michelle, what are you going to be doing for the summer?"
*is agog* *cocks eyebrow* "Looking for a job." Said with equanimity.
She shakes her head, and ALMOST rolls her eyes, stopping herself at a mere frown. "No. I mean what are you doing for vacation? Will you be going anywhere? the Beach, hanging with your mom or anything?"
*again, is agog* "Well," I said, again trying to be cool and level headed about this, and not sarcastic, "I really can't afford to go anywhere. I might be moving, depending on where I can find a job."
At which point, she said, "Oh. Well. Have you tried anywhere else in the county?"
Like she gives a shit.
I talked about the Other High School I applied to, and she was all "Oh okay." Then after a couple of minutes, she just sort of walked away.
These people here suck. Huge, hairy Monkey balls. I just thought I'd share.
