Like $50-100 million easily. Sweetheart of a person and you'd never know. We didn't work out because of stuff I'm sorting through professionally and personally.

Anyways. She's a school teacher (kindergarten) for a private school because she loves working with kids. Has her Masters in education and it's where her passion lies.

She just texted me that she quit today. The reason? A parent complained to the school about her because she belongs to the same country club as the parent/child. It "made it too hard for the child to separate the fact that she was their teacher and not their friend."

Holy. Fuck. This world finds new ways to disappoint me each and every single day.

Some of the kids I teach see me in social settings too, but theres no way Im missing every single event that a child from my school might possibly be at, so they just have to learn to deal with it.

that is bullshit.

the world is small in a lot of ways, where people in a community will find themselves being connected in more than one way, so it's messed up to think that someone could be fired because of that.

Sounds like an excuse for the parents being mad at a teacher being able to afford the same fancy country club theyre in. After all .. what's the point of being reach if you have to share the space with the peons working for you.

That's exactly how I've interpreted it. Honestly, don't think it could be anything else. Which is funny because her family is one of the more connected families in the city.

Yeah but if you send your kids to a very expensive school, the teachers salaries are going to be much higher than usual.

I can confirm that hers is not. It's a joke for being a top 3 school in the city. Appalling actually.

I work in retail. So this is the sort of shit that pisses me off. Have your employee's back unless they actually broke workplace policy. For every ten assholes that say they're never coming back, nine of them will be back, possibly that fucking night. But heaven forbid they offend anyone lest they lose even a dollar.

Your girl's boss sounds like a limp noodle piece of shit.

Thats freaking ridiculous and infuriating. Its like just because of her job she belongs to a lower social class. Btw my kid is in private school with some rich kids in it (not me lol). And I can totally see the principal bending over for some more influential parents.

From what I understand of school politics, administration always bends over backwards to impress parents at the expense of teachers.

Make those parents a couple of idiot nepo babies and it's gonna be a real fuckin' problem.

It's infuriating, their job is to create functional adults. And if some dysfunctional rich asshole can't leave well enough alone, it interferes in that job.

Also, random thought, what the fuck does a kindergartener do at a country club? I was under the impression they were for rich people to drink and socialize.

Clubs are very family friendly. Sports, pool, events, etc.

So she quit because of how pissed off she got from not having administrations support? I get it, they need her more than she needs the job. Its toxic to work at a place where your boss doesnt have your back

I think that if they dont like it, theyre welcome to pull their kids out. Weve got a waiting list thats bigger than our school capacity. It wont be a problem.

And it sounds like the principal was on their side, so that wasn't the case here.

Sure, I just dont see why not. I think the principal is unfit for the post if the information weve been given is accurate.

Correct. That, however, is going in circles because being correct doesn't matter to the parents.

At least you didn't start screeching about how there is no actual definition for "chud" this time.
