So, I havent updated here in like ages...and that's because I didnt really feel like doing so. After a day's work of handling parents, whether face to face or over the phone, at the tuition centre, by the time I reach home, I'm already fucking pissed and I dont even feel like blogging...I rather go over to YouTube and watch random videos. While watching, I stumbled over this. It's a video of Joey Yung dancing and singing to a Cantonese version of Bi's It's Raining. Fuck. She cant dance and the lyrics are just weird in Cantonese...especially the 'It's Joey, Go Joey' part. I cant even see her damn boobs! Then again, that's not the main point I'm trying to make here. In short...the video seriously sucks.
Anyway, let's return to the topic of parents that I handle everyday. The more parents I handle, the more I feel that they are the ones that require tuition classes...not their children. Not all, but some la. Some seriously fucking idiotic ones. So we are closed on this coming Saturday all the way to the 1st of February. To inform all parents and students, we handed out circulars just in case some blur kid turns up for lessons during the holiday stretch. Then, today, I received a call.
Idiot Parent, IP : You're closed on Saturdays har?
Me : (already pissed off since yesterday due to many many incidents) Yes we are.
IP: Then like that hor, we only get 3 lessons out of this month. No makeup ar?
Me: (read the circular before calling please) Erm, no.
IP: No refund?
Me: (go fucking read the circular) No.
IP: Why like that? Like that my money so wasted lei. That time Christmas also like that.
Me: (like I give a damn like that...nevertheless, I was still patient.) Madam, you see, some months there are 5 Saturday weeks, therefore it actually equals out.
IP: But hor, Sat very rare got 5 weeks lei. Like that my money still wasted what.
Me: (frantically checks calendar and realises that there are 4 months in which there are 5 weeks of Saturday this year) Erm Madam, April, September ...(forgot what other months) have 5 Saturdays lei...therefore it actually equals out.
IP: But that time the Christmas week so wasted lei.
Me: (stop harping on that fucking Christmas week!)
I forgot how the conversation ended but it involved lots of repeating myself. The next parent was a little better...just retarded.
Retarded Parent, RP : Can I check vacancies for Secondary 1 Maths?
Me : Sure. (checks) Sorry but Sec 1 Maths has no vacancies available currently.
RP : Why no vacancies ar?
Me : Erm, because the classes are full already.
RP : Why cannot open another class har?
Me : (Fuck, open class just for you meh?) Not enough teachers.
RP : Then, can I check Pri 3 Maths?
Me : Sorry but Pri 3 Maths is over at the other building, you'll have to call the other building.
RP : Pri 3 Maths got vacancies?
Me : (Fuck...dont understand English ar?) We dont have Pri 3 Maths here, you'll have to call the other building.
RP : Oh, ok.
Fuck. There are parents who are even worse. When we say the class is full, we fucking mean it. However, they think we are kidding them and keep asking us to squeeze their child in. One person wont make a difference. Like fuck, it does can...Plus, I hate parents who treat me as a complaint outlet. I dont want to listen to your crap, thank you very much. I'm paid to do work as a EOA, not Aunt Agony...
Then after the parents come my superior. I announced yesterday that I was going back in 5min...and then she gave me something to do. Fuck. Never mind I did it for her and was about to pack my bag when she asked me to go over next door to get something for her. FUCK. She has no hands or legs is it? Why the fuck do I have to get it for her? I want to fucking go home can? Somemore talk bad about me behind my back...although it's just a one-liner, dont think I wont get to know about it.
Damn, I'm feeling so sucky now and I really feel like crying...I almost cried yesterday and I had to go home early before I really went crazy...I sorta feel like quitting now...Every week I got to print hundreds of worksheets for teachers and some how or rather, worksheets keep getting missing and I get fucking blamed for it. When things go right, no one thanks me but when things go wrong...I get blamed. Thanks. Fuck. Plus, we always do OT but dont get paid for it...
Then today, I had a class till 6pm. Normally we are supposed to close accounts at 5.30pm. However today, no one closed the accounts although it was after 6pm...naturally I asked why not closed yet. I did not expect to meet with a 'You cannot see everyone's busy ar? Eat also must eat while working. Where got time to close?'...said by my colleague. Maybe she meant it as a joke but I was already fucking pissed by then(with those idiotic parents), therefore I took it quite seriously. What do I look like? A slacker? I'm the only one who has nothing to do but only knows how to sit there and complain why havent close accounts is it? Fine, but just to let you know, I just fucking took a class and closing's supposed to be done at 5.30pm. So I dont think I was wrong to ask that question. Plus, I cleared all the fucking rubbish today on top of closing the accounts. I really hate it when I'm pissed with someone and that someone is totally oblivious to it...
I really need the New Year break.
