I have worked in some tough places with some difficult people but this place takes the biscuit. I have recently found out that my line manager had been bad mouthing me behind my back. We had a weeks break and I was sick as a dog, but I still managed to haul myself in and help sort out the learning environments (I did claim for that day and also the planning day I needed). There had been a kafuffle over the data (I hate data, they’re children not numbers) and I had been asked to reassess them and update the data. I had no access to the system the school uses, I was on holiday and sick. My line manager then had the audacity to say I missed deadlines for the data (which I hadn’t been given) to two people that I don’t work with.
I bumped into the head and offloaded a bit more than I had intended to but it all needed to be said. The staff are struggling they have lost their zest for the job. His response “What are you going to do about it?” My response “cheer them on and chivvy them along, which is quite difficult when you feel like pants.”
