Sickening people I've to work with

Hai.. I lost my temper in school again today.

I was about to go to class after my free period when the office staff paged for me and asked me where the extra copies for the P3 English Paper were.

Ok let me explain a little. We teachers have to set papers for the exams so after the Principal vets and endorses our paper, we send it for printing. We have a photocopying lady to do the printing. After printing for the whole level, the setter will count the exact copies for each class and store them away to be used for the exam. There will always be extra copies which will be stored in the same cupboard. These extra copies are for new pupils who need to take our exams to be placed in the correct level the next year.

So a new student came along today and the office staff couldn't find the extra copies and immediately pointed the finger at me because I am the setter. The photocopying lady even dared to say that I printed the paper myself. Like DUH, as if I am so bored that I want to print a 20 pages paper for 150 students. Obviously they were misplaced or taken by someone, most likely a P3 teacher when he/she gave out the papers for the exam. And then they demanded me to give them a copy right away.

Luckily I had my thumbdrive with me. If not, what will happen? Shouldn't the office be more organised and file the extras properly to be used when needed instead of only rummaging through the cupboard when a new student pops in?

Wah lau... really hate their attitude. They just don't know how to admit their mistakes and ask nicely for favours. Wished I could say "NO. I'm not going to print it out for you unless you ask nicely."
