Dismissing Threats

I am tired of being falsely accused and slandered without evidence.

My boss had the guts to translate through his daughter that I am "skipping around" in my classes (I am one of the most orderly people I know!), students aren't learning in my class (phone calls from parents, probably from students who don't want to learn in my class, and thus don't have anything to share with their parents - because they don't want to pay attention), and I don't "have the enthusiasm" to work there. All of these things are false and would have been proven as such by a simple check of my own log for work; and let's not forget to mention that most of the problems that my boss has with me are problems that he himself creates, both with his personal demeanor, decisions he makes to me that he forgets, his lack of order in schedule preparation for the summer session, and with his controlling what I teach and how in the first place. And did I mention that this was all random this morning, after being told just a week prior that I was not in any trouble at all?

Needless to say, since in addition to this I also don't have (a) a full-time schedule of available hours, (b) benefits of any kind whatsoever, and (c) much long-time security in the job itself, I have come to the conclusion after a few weeks of thinking that I really need to look for something else. If you see this, and you are so inclined, please pray that Cole will get whatever he needs whenever he needs it, and that I can continue being as stable a father as is humanly possible. As long as I am allowed to love him, I honestly care for nothing else at this point.
