Pissing Other People Off

Oh yeah and what did they call those communicator thingies?

Gee, Auntblabby, you do seem to be a bit negative. Of course, I don't know your struggles. When I was diagnosed (which freaked me out) the psychologist told me that AS is not an excuse but a challenge.

Things have taken another turn. I had to do a presentation, my course coordinator is a c**t. I went into him earlier in the year to explain my circumstances, that there might be some issues with regards to presentations. Normally I'm pretty good, I've been teaching for 5 years. But I made a simple request to have the lights out while I do a PowerPoint presentation and for questions to be asked at the end. That was fine, until I did such a good job on my presentation that my lecturer seems to have it in for me since. I'm generally not they type of person to give myself compliments.

I had another presentation recently and the course coordinator insistent-ed that these were to be done in a format that I would be uncomfortable with. I queried this and asked if it could be done in a format that I would be more relaxed doing, got told that he would be get back to me. I never heard anything back, so I decided to take it into my own hands and book a room that had a projector, so I could do a PowerPoint presentation. The whole reason I submitted medical reports, was so I could get accommodated for presentations and the c**t is deliberately putting obstacles in my way so I don't preform as well as I could. Anyway, somebody else queries the format and gets completely accommodated to do it in a different way, and is allowed to use his laptop for this. I had to source my own from the IT department. I really can't stand favoritism. Luckily for me, he doesn't get on so well with the head of department and spotted this dickhead nit picking his way through my presentation and decides to belittle him. Deservedly so. The only trouble is, I can now expect a retaliation from this weed at some point.

What a cccccuuuuuunnnnntttttttttt. I've never wanted to punch somebody so badly.

Sorry for the rant.

Remember, there are a lot of mean people out there.
