Extremely boring work rantings

katallisonUp at 4 a.m., after lying in bed for a while staging a furious mental debate with a higher-up at my job. *Man,* I am eloquent in my head at three-thiry in the morning.
What's odd is that I've been amazingly productive and organized at work this week, accomplishing lots of really good stuff with my students. I realized, lying in bed just now, that I've made a decision to simply do my work in the way that seems best to me for whatever individual student I'm working with, and if that runs counter The New Diktat, then they can reprimand me, and if they're unhappy enough about it, they can fire my pasty white ass. I'll be fine; the only way I won't be fine is if I start doing stuff that fucks over my own values and ethics, simply for the sake of keeping a job.
And having clarified that (and bored my friends senseless with it), I can maybe now grab another hour or two of sleep. Friday, thank *god.*
