What is on your menu today (Monday) RNYers

Sorry to hear that you are losing your job but I hope your next adventure is less toxic.

How has someone else posted as me? This is very strange. Is there a way to delete this?

OH has a glitch where sometimes a post will appear as though it was written by someone else; that's probably what happened here. I would suggest sending an email to Member Services and they can help fix!

Ladylost, I am sorry to hear about your job ending. But since you wrote it is a toxic environment then its good you no longer have to face that day in & day out. Don't know if you are looking for something else or are close to retirement and can just transition early. Either way I hope it all works out for you!

I hope your tummy is better today and you are rested.

Supershopper?

Please stop commenting and liking on this post. My account was hacked and for some strange reason this person has told everyone I was fired. I was not.

Good Morning Daisy and Menuers,

Yesterday was a super bad day. I was observed by my principal last week and I got the write-up yesterday. It's not even my observation year, so I wasn't sure why he wanted to come in but whatever. The write up was horrible. In my 23 years of teaching I have never, not even once, received a needs improvement and yesterday he awarded me, not one but THREE! I was floored. The math lesson was a good lesson and I followed the lesson plan and the math program with fidelity, there was no reason to receive needs improvement. What I do know is that I am not a blonde or super skinny and that is what he prefers. I am not one of his favorites (he does have his favorites - the young, skinny, blonde teachers) because I am a bit of a squeaky wheel if something isn't right - classroom conditions related. Other than that, I keep to myself, do my job and stay away from the office. I was so upset that I wasn't able to be in the staff picture because he decided to meet with me about the observation at 8 and pictures were at 8:20. The good news in all of this? Besides he is an a$$ is that principals move schools and he is completing year 5 - he will be out soon. Sorry for the rant but it leads to...

Accountability: I was so sick to my stomach after our meeting I couldn't eat. I did sip on hot tea all day because it seemed so comforting. But when I got home the flood gate opened as I ranted to DH and ate my way through the house. Today is a new day and I am ready to move forward.

TSS: 1 year 2-months/163 pounds

B: PP shake and a hardboiled egg

L: ham and cheese with a little salad

S: pear and cheese

D: Party meatballs - meatballs, chili sauce, and sugar-free jelly

I haven't put it in MFP yet but I will.

Have a great day!

Oh no! So sorry that you had such a horrible review. Glad you kept hydrated though. Deep breath and do your best to get back to plan today.

As for your principal moving on, in my 16+ years at my job, I have really struggled with some folks, especially some of the management. The good news is that I have outlasted most of them. Not pleasant but I am still here and doing my job and they've either retired or moved on to harass someone else!

I have outlasted 6 or 7 principals. He too shall pass on to another school and I truly hope the next principal we get is dynamic and a true leader.

Sounds like you are a member of the stress and emotional eating club of which I am the president! So sorry about your review but there is no reason to let yourself feel bad because your boss is an idiot. At least he's headed on to torment someone else soon. Have a great day and don't let anyone else rain on your parade!
