Is there a wall around here I can bang my head against?

In what has been a year of very little work, this week was a new low. To break it down:

Monday: national holiday (Pfingstmontag). No school.

Tuesday: Used to be my fullest day with six periods of class, but four of those have since ended. I now usually have class during the first and sixth periods. I showed up shortly before the day began at 8 to find that the teacher I usually work with wasn't there, and the sub didn't need me. So I waited around until sixth period, the second half of a double period. The teacher went about fifteen minutes over into my period finishing up a film, so I did an activity with the kids that lasted about half an hour.

Wednesday: I usually do a team-teaching activity for two periods with the seventh grade teacher. When I showed up, though, she said that she wanted to review some grammar with them that day and didn't need me. I went home.

Thursday: Again, I usually have two periods in the morning, but today the students were taking a test, so I didn't have to come.

And Fridays I always have off.

So I worked for a grand total of half an hour this week. If you consider that my stipend is 703 euros a month, that means I was paid about 175 euros this week for 30 minutes of work. If someone were to do a study of waste of taxpayer money, I feel like my situation is an expose waiting to happen.

Ugh. At least I'll be done in a month.
