I did not have a good night. I got my ass handed to me because of some negative feedback from the Disney groups. According to them, having a personality and not being boring is considered 'unprofessional'. Plus of course they all thought I was mean because I was grumpy about people being late. I am NEVER going to back down on that one. It's just fucking rude that these people can't show up on time. We're talking half the class late. Not one or two, but in their case it was more than half. So yeah, I was cranky about that because you're wasting my time. The other issue though is that these were mid 20 somethings who have swallowed the kool-aid about being good little corporate soldiers and here comes someone like me who doesn't play nice. Someone who says, sorry all this stuff you care about is bullshit. That degree you're still paying off? Means nothing. Specifically these were mid 20s, early 30s, marketing analysts who see their jobs as the most important thing ever and I told them they were ridiculous shits. Oops. There were other issues too that i think led to some of it being taken out on me such as they didn't want to be there in most cases. They weren't given enough prep time for the classes, the material was beneath many of them, and since they can't bitch to their corporate overlords about that, they took it out on me. This isn't the first time I have had trouble with east coast stuck up marketing corporate people and it probably won't be the last, but it still bugs me. Makes me feel awful. Have the decency to say this shit to my face not in some anonymous message. Yet in the same reviews? People who said I was patient, knowledgable, and awesome. Go figure. Fuck Floridians in the ass. Fucking hate them.

I was also pissed at my boss about this because he sends an email at 3:45pm saying we need to talk but I am heading out the door, I will call you tomorrow. No. No fucking way are you going to leave me with 24 hours of anxiety and hit me with this on a Friday. I sent him an email and a voicemail to that effect. He ended up calling me back at 5:30. Ruined my dinner, but at least it's done.

Speaking of dinner, I made baked chicken with butternut squash. Came out pretty good even if it was cold as shit.

As for my current class, one dude. He's okay. We got through stuff with no issues. One more day with him and then I get a break. Turns out I have no students in the first part of next week. Cool. I need some downtime.

No news on the home front. Still waiting to hear back on the negotiations. It could still all fall through. Lovely.
