I tutored computer 5th and 6th graders at the local grammar school around the corner from my house for about a year back in 2000-2001 as part of a work studies program. Soon after I started working there I realized that the workload was too much for a college student with 19 units so I asked for less hours and they hired another guy to work there to teach during the hours which I was in class, which was cool since it relieved a lot of pressure from my schedule.
However, this guy that got hired was.... not reliable. He constantly showed up to an hour late all the time, mostly because he was getting stoned and falling asleep in his car IN THE PARKING LOT. I got tired of putting up with his bullshit on general principle and complained the principal and told her exactly what was happening. I mean, I wasn't out of line, motherfucker... I may be a drunk but even
I manage to know when it is impeding my ability to, you know, FUNCTION ON A DAILY BASIS.
Well... Long story short, something about this didn't sit right with the principal and asked the school board to transfer me to another campus due to "conflict of academic opinion", but in typical fashion was never actually transferred anywhere and thus my employment with the Visalia Unified School District was terminated.
Naturally I was pissed off and did a little investigating which eventually led into me finding out that this guy was also the principal's son's best friend. But since I couldn't prove any personal malice on the principal's behalf, the matter was dropped along with my job. On the plus side, since I was not
actually transferred like I was promised the district gave me a $600 unemployment settlement which I still haven't collected on. It has been accumulating interest in something the district calls the APPLE program so I figure I'll leave that sitting there for a few years and see how much I can get it to rack up over the years.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
