1. Pretty sure we just got a speech that translates to,”Yeah, you’re getting a raise (1%) but you have to pay the same amount, plus the taxes on it, back into your retirement fund. Also, if you have a job next year, you should be happy, even though your insurance rates are going to increase as well because we’re so far in the hole and the state is screwing our poverty stricken district with the budget. Have a good day!”

     
  2. Got observed today.

    I think I did well.  I’m afraid I’m going to get the,”I don’t know how to observe you because our sheet doesn’t work well with what you do” talk that I’ve got for the last two years.

    Granted, I didn’t know about the observation until I was headed to second period and the observation happened during third…so hopefully the principal won’t be too tough on me.
