A storm is brewing...!

The tiny disturbance which I had dismissed from my mind as an insignificant storm in a tea cup is appearing to be  deeper, bigger and nastier...

A is the manager of the school. She had promised me to hold a meeting on Monday to discuss all issues regarding the Christmas play but there appeared no sign of a meeting the entire Monday. Worried to death about  my precious play, I myself went up to her showed her the list of issues. To my surprise, she appeared so brutally unhelping  and unconcerned that I suddenly feel I have made a mistake in wanting to do something.
I told her that my Mary is going on a vacation the very day which has been decided for the play, can we not prepone the play? She said, 'No problem, you must do the play without her." And she knows there is not another girl not even a boy, in the entire school to replace her.
Then, there is the problem of me not getting time for practice. My children go to sleep at 12 noon and  I have to stay with them till quarter to 2 to wake them up after which I am free, but by that time most of the play children already go home. I desperately need to be free in order to take the practice. But to this too, she replied in the same way, " You have to find out yourself which teacher is free and then ask her to take over your charge.''
" But I don't know who is free. You only allot duties and free times to teachers. And besides, who will want to obey me? If you tell a particular teacher that she has to do this or that she would listen but nobody would listen to me.' I argued.
' No, I can't do this. I don't know who is free and who is not. You have to find this out yourself and ask them.'

How ridiculous..! We have our team meetings every fortnight when our duties and free times are discussed and thoroughly noted down. And she, the manager, is saying she doesn't know? And why the hell is she a manager if she can't even tell a teacher to do this simple job. And wait, she does tell teachers to do other jobs, then why not this?
