My daughter has gone well above what us expected of her, the kids adore her, she is literally changing lives, it’s a 3-6 concert, not a sporting event.blybo wrote:Well my wife runs her own business as do I, and work comes first for both of us, as it should for your daughter too. The principal is not being a bitch. Your duaghter knew only too well teaching involves lots of out of school hours. I bet she doesn't complain about 12 weeks holiday per year though! Swings and roundabouts.think positive wrote:Unaustralian! My daughters school where she iisthe PE teacher has the grade 3-6 concert that night. Her and another teacher both have tickets. They were told to call in sick but the were both honest and the head master is being a real bitch! You knew the concert was on, you should have arranged your social life around it! Well honey I don’t think they will reschedule the game for a grade 3-6 concert, not at a public school anyway!blybo wrote: We have 100k members, should we double the capacity of the MCG so everyone gets a seat?
Being Thursday night I didn't even try to get tickets. My wife and youngest daughter are both Melbourne members too, but my wife is working till at least 7pm. So even if she finishes on time, she won't even get to see the start as it's a 30-40min commute.
No way she will miss the game!
We once went to the church wedding but not the reception due to a final. No regrets or ducks given,
We also have outwit business, but it’s no longer coming first, work to live, not live to work. Teachers don’t really get 12 weeks holidays, they spend a good part of it, or at least she does, planning and organising. All the HM has done us ensure that next time, she will get lied to.
