vent

God, I’m so sick of my boss. He thinks that just because he’s older and taller, he should be the king over my head.

I’m sick of him keep commenting on my body and look, and offering his “male perspective” regardless if I want to hear it or not.

I’m sick of him demanding that I work out to look younger and thinner.
I’m sick of him looking at me like an alien from outer space when I requested professional training.
I am sick of him giving me murderous look when I completed a graduate level class at a top school. It used to make me afraid, now I am just sick of it.

I’m so so sick of working with idiots, idiots who make a big fuss out of me taking classes in the evening because it makes them look dumb, idiots who create rumors about how I am a friend with some opera directors just because I signed up for a lecture over the phone.

God, I cannot believe people like those exist in this world.

but I never really had a good chance to vent to anybody about it in safety, because the truth could potentially damage someone’s reputation very badly, and that person had been staring at me with murderous hatred in his eyes.

I was at a Learning Tree International training class last October in Rockville, Maryland in US. The class was Intro to Oracle 11g Administration. I had been taking classes at Learning Tree for the last ten years and always had very positive experience till that class. They had hired someone from UK to give the class. He was a professor in Oracle Technology and his behavior was unbelievably mean by American standards.

He was deliberately mean and abusive to several people in the class. I don’t know why, but I suspected that it had something to do with their race and gender. He belittled their technical questions and refused to answer them, and then when they were peacefully working on the assignment, he would sneak behind them shouting in a loud voice “How are you doing?” He did this to deliberately disrupt the students’ thought process. He seemed to especially have issues with Asian women. When an Asian lady asked him a question, he purposely created drama that she was hitting on him. When two Asian ladies talked to one another, his face turned blue. He seemed to be especially hateful of me because I laughed at his hilarious low class attempt to discourage people from learning. When I was leaving the classroom, he stared at me with murderous hatred in his eyes. Don’t know why, but I felt so sorry for this loser, it exceeded my fears for my safety.

I’m sorry about the negativity in this post. I came across an unbelievable scum, had to vent about it somehow. Now that it’s out of my system, I feel much better :)
