I used to like my work. I used to be proud of where I worked, a form of elitism and hubris I suppose. Since my ignominious departure I've been served quite an array of professional rebuffs. I still love teaching the kids, but Hanover has so much bureaucratic nonsense, and so little interest in acting efficiently to serve kids, that it's really draining. Don't get me wrong; the people, especially the P and VP, at Hanover, are terrific. It's working in the cogs of the machine itself that's so disappointing.
JHM's behavior specialist emailed me yet again to ask that I detail his behavior in the proper documents. I know I should have done this long ago. I just haven't been able to bring myself to do it. I'm not sure why, but sometimes I get so... done that I can't get started on things that need to be done, especially tasks like this that are so faceless and tangled in red tape. I feel like I don't have enough time at work to think, let alone to document who did what when and what worked and what didn't and how many minutes were spent doing it.
It's been a rough year.
I went home and slept like the dead.
