A new teacher Tn, from Nigeria, has joined our staff today as an English teacher. She had worked here two months ago for three days in Mz's group.
Today was her first day and she and I were walking down to the station to catch our train. She was apparently taken by completely surprise at the panic and the chaos in the school on her very first day. She was extremely baffled and stressed too.Then she started telling me something which made me sit up.
She told me she was working with another teacher of this school in another school.
"A tall, bulky bossy woman with long hair. As"
"As?"
"Ya ya. You might find it interesting that last year I had come to this very school to apply for the post of a teacher. The door was opened by you. You took me to the manager and she was the manager. She was so horribly rude to me that I cannot describe to you. "No. We don't have any place for you. You go."
You witnessed it and felt bad for me perhaps. You expressed that you were sorry you couldn't do anything for me. You were so kind. You were the only one who spoke so nicely to me. I obtained job in another kindergarten. A few months later, who should walk into my room? This As! She had joined that kindergarten and was in my own group. She didn't recognize me and I didn't disclose. It is a small world. Better be nice to everyone."
