Another class bites the dust...

I made it through another semester... probably my hardest yet! 0o



I finished with an A thankfully, although I am sure if it were up to my teacher I would have only gotten an A- ... honestly, I don't know how the other students did, but her grading policy seemed rather stringent. I had a high A in all the tests ranking only a couple of points off of a 100%, but I couldn't get more than a 69 out of 75 points for any of her discussion boards. She stated that if I wanted to demonstrate a mastery of the subject that I should go beyond the assignment by responding to more than two students... try not to respond all at once instead spacing out my responses (Wha? Lady, I work and am raising a toddler, I don't have time to space out my responses to fulfill what exactly I'm not really sure *growl*) etc... so another words, you want me to do extra credit work that is not asked for in order to get my full grade? WTF? Does anyone else think that is asshattery?

I know I have been rather MIA lately. I've been kind of depressed and feeling very unhappy with my job lately (or rather the people over me as I like the actual work I do) I won't get really into it but to say there is a certain level of bull that I will put up with, and being threatened to be written up for working fifteen minutes or so over when the girl right next to me is working around an hour over daily is not going to fly. I called HR, and I'm going to have a talk with them as soon as I can. I'm not going to lose my tuition assistance over getting a write up for completing my job in a function that has always gotten the office staff a little overtime being the nature of the job not the fact that "I'm not wrapping it up more quickly" *end rant* Sorry, I just had to get that out. It's been a rough week :(
