Well, school started again today - at least for us, teachers. The kids won't come in until September 1, the lucky little buggers. We'll be doing paperwork, ordering the classrooms and fighting over lessons that we don't get and the other one does until then. Joy.

We're all supposed to have 22 lessons a week. According to my curriculum, I've got 21 on one week and 19 on the other one - unless I'm completely stupid and cannot count (well, I can't but that's another problem). We work in a two-week-schedule. I've already gone to the deputy headmistress twice about this, but she said both times that I will have my obligatory lessons. I don't see how (unless it's a counting problem), so I'll go and bother her again tomorrow. *sigh*

I don't mind working shorter hours, but if that comes with a paycut in the short run and losing my job in the long run that's disturbing. I hope it's just me being stupid, but we can never know.

At least the mini-packages of instant tea (apple/cinnamon and caramel/chili) or coffee that I brought my colleagues from the Spice Museum in Hamburg turned out an absolute hit. They were all very happy with the stuff, so the new term started in a good mood.

Well school is what it is, but at least it pays the bills - as long as it lasts.

The real problem is, I spoke today with two colleagues who have the same problem. One my age, the other a few years younger, but still. I'm really getting a bit worried. Not for this year, I tentatively hope that this year will be okay, but for what comes...

Huh, it is a bit weird, but on the other hand it's good that it isn't just you. At least it's nothing personal.

Good luck sorting out the hours! I hope you get all that you want, and some decent students, as well!

I'm not sure about decent students, but at least the hours got sorted out.
