The Parent's Invitation

The Parents Committee has now come up with something really new; they have planned to hold a monthly  informal  parents teacher get-together in a nearby place where everyone can enjoy and get familiar with each other. The first get-together is in the first week of February and we all have been invited and requested to bring our devices to share Christmas play photos and videos with each other.

What I would not give to see As's reactions on this ! The more she hates the play and all the parents and strives to keep them and teachers apart, the more they catch up. I am ready to believe that all the teachers will be forbidden to attend this event. Maybe only Mz and Mym will be directed to go rather like under cover detectives to see and report all that happens  there...!

As to me I am most undecided. I do want to go to get play video and photos and to be able to tell them somehow all that happened to me because of the play but having been burnt I also want to play safe now and so want to strictly avoid any thing that can possibly get me into further controversy or conflict. For all I know As and Stf are just waiting for the slightest excuse to fire me.

Only Ad in school asked me what I thought about the invitation and she showed her full inclination to attend it. Rest all of them including Cl didn't even breathe a word about to me. Strangely Cl discussed all the mails in the box except the one with the invitation. I wonder, why she feels so afraid to discuss some particular things with me. Either she doesn't trust me, or doesn't appreciate my opinion about some people who are her friends  or doesn't want to court trouble/ argument and  with other colleagues because they don't like me and she does....

I happened to look at Cl's handwriting and was amazed to notice a few striking features. Like she double knots her ovals and her T bars are pretty small and low and has wavy baselines. This signifies that she is hesitant, unsure, afraid, emotional, scared of people etc.

Well, I too have decided that I am not going to embroil myself emotionally anywhere. I will just do what is required of me and that's it.
No emotional baggage to share, lend or borrow. Be professional. Don't be a fool. And please don't work with your soul. The company pays for you, not for your unwanted extra baggage...!
