This morning I was given notice of redundancy - my last day is this Friday. The school I work for is closing my department
I’ve worked there for 15 years & the current teaching staff is the best I’ve ever seen. Just outrageously good teachers. Students love us. We absolutely rock
Unfortunately, management did their jobs really badly, so now teachers are unemployed (don’t worry - managers get to stay, phew!)
This is how shocked Max was when I told him
@rufustheduck I'm so sorry to hear that. There's not much I can do to help, but I just subscribed to your podcast.

@rufustheduck
He's really amazing. Has he yet produced sime kittens to replace him?@nuwagaba2 he can't!
-
That really sucks.
Max is very cute, though 🥰@hewasaseidrbxy me and Max agree

@rufustheduck
I taught that! In Finland. In the 70s. I worked for an institute (teaching adults in business) and wasn't supposed to use any of their language. You should have seen my impression of a cobra (snake) when nothing else worked to get them to understand what it was. On the floor, of course!
️
Sorry, I digress.
I'm so sorry. I hope you find something else quickly. -
@rufustheduck good luck. Max thinks you will find a way through this.
@IanMoore3000 I'm glad he believes in me
-
@rufustheduck I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully Max gave you some extra cuddles today.
@wevebe he's taking care of me
-
@rufustheduck Damn, that's bullshit. I'm sorry. 🫂
@thestrangelet thank you
-
@rufustheduck Damn, words can't describe how sorry I am for you. Max is really gorgeous by the way.
@anotheridiotontheweb thank you. And he is, isn't he?
-
@rufustheduck So sorry to hear this. Max is concerned. I suppose you can't start something with other teachers laid off?
@annehargreaves thank you. We're looking into our options at the moment
-
@rufustheduck Sorry, hope you can find new job
Tagging with #GetFediHired in hopes that it might help!
@ahimsa_pdx thank you!

@rufustheduck Sympathies, last place I worked the directors and senior managers made an arse of it. Of course they remained while a whole section of the company and dozens of us who actually had done our jobs well were all paid off. Fortunately it eventually lead me to a much better job at a place I love, hope similar happens for you, but it's still a kick in bum when this happens
@LordWoolamaloo thank you! I'm happy to hear things worked out for you after you were also a victim of incompetence

@rufustheduck I am sorry for this bullshit stress on you and the way our systems are absolutely butchering educators' job prospects. F'n bananas. I hope you have or can find a path forward soon.

@anotheridiotontheweb thank you. And he is, isn't he?
@rufustheduck I mean, all cats are gorgeous, but black cats are really fascinating.
-
@elliek it's a great teacher who's willing to get on the floor to properly communicate an idea
@rufustheduck
I seem to remember that 'snake' was easy, but cobra took a bit more imagination. It was fun. -

@anotheridiotontheweb agree

@rufustheduck
I reckon none of those so-called managers want to meet with Max in a dark alley... It's abundantly clear the cat-force is strong in that one.What a ____er though, sorry to hear and hope you find something else soon. Max will see you right.
