I recently started working at a school and despite the low pay, I've been trying my best to gather experience. I've been told by my superiors and parents that my work there is appreciated but today one of my colleagues asked me about the company dinner tomorrow at the most expensive and luxurious restaurant in the city.
I didn't know about it and they said that they thought my boss had invited me. I'm like “what??? I don't know about it.” And they said that my boss probably would say something about it later today.
Well, they called me to their office and pretty much told me I'd have to come up with new and modern lesson plans and since I'm pretty new, I'd have to do work on my vacation (but there won't be any students in the school??) and do something to benefit the image of the school.
I told my colleagues and they just shrugged and another colleague who is also new said that they got invited. I can't believe that tomorrow I'll be likely eating scrambled eggs again (did I mention my pay is late?) whilst everyone else is enjoying an amazing dinner at the best restaurant. Yeah, my work is very appreciated for sure.
