i lost it a bit at admin chick.
woke up this morning and was like 'okay, righty-ho today is the day i play their game...' so i set off for uni... to find the tutors for the foundation program i applied to... to suck up best i could. since that seems to be how you get a place in that.
i found the math lady. it was mixed. she was fine... then she played all dumb for a bit... and i got angry... and then things got a bit better again...
she said it was admin chick who i really needed to talk to.
i went to chemistry chick... and ended up apologising that i felt like it was really unprofessional my going and chatting to her... but that was how things seemed to be with the program...
she said it was admin chick who i really needed to talk to.
i went to see admin chick... her door was partly open... she was on the phone. i waited outside.
she was talking about me. probably with math chick. she said i admitted to being on the autistic spectrum when asked and questioned my ability to conduct myself appropriately in the classroom. etc.
when she hung up i knocked and went in. i said the only questions she should have about me are about my inability to play this sucking up game...
i went off at her. raised my voice. not heaps... but raised it, yeah.
unprofessionalism. that is what i do not deal with. how DARE she.
i went to disability support. the lady there was great. listened. have an appointment with a guy on monday. i don't expect i'll get to do the foundations program... but at the very least something needs to be done about her lack of professionalism. it isn't okay. and it most certainly isn't okay for her to disclose information about a persons disability to third parties.
How DARE she call my competency into question like that. she wasn't even capable of shutting her pie hole for a couple minutes to hear the message i wanted to her re: my application. See... Here's the thing: She doesn't have a degree. And it is simply beyond her comprehension why someone might want / need more than one. And I clearly can't do one now (at my age) because... Then it might start to look like it's within her power that she doesn't have one...
She gets off on throwing her weight around with the selection thing because... It is probably the only power she's got in her life.
If it wasn't for the fact that she's got power over me I'd feel empathy for her. But since she's in the position she's in... I wish she'd curl into a hole and die. HOnestly.
I AM SO F*CK*NG ANGRY RIGHT NOW
