Frustrations have been resolved

My boss got involved, which I feel bad about, but I am glad that I will see most of my students twice each week. Today was another long teachers meeting, about safety, policy, procedures and a lot of other stuff. I heard the word 'collective' a lot, and there is an organization, not quite a union, but something that connects all the teachers. They were deciding how much to contribute to a fund if someone's immediate family dies, and what the best way to deal with absences was, and how often to celebrate birthdays, all sorts of stuff. No time now, will write more later…
