the layered cake

there is a new center manager at work.  she's clueless.  she has been placing students in the wrong levels and when the students request to go to the next level because the current levels that they have been put in seems too easy for them, she makes it the teachers' problem by calling us into a meeting and asking for our thoughts on the matter.  thing is --- we would be saving everyone a lot of time if she just got it right in the first place!!!

on top of that, she's quick to label students --- something that i'm not comfortable with.  it's only her third day at work and she has already label one student as having an attitude problem just because she greeted him and he didn't respond.  when i tried to suggest that it could just be a cultural difference thing, she said that she has seen many iranian students who are polite.  so okay, she thinks she is right... yep, she's one of THOSE...

so, i'm gonna keep my distance from her...
