Want to know what annoys me?
School.
Yes, school. So far, I’ve only had experience with public school - and public elementary school at that.
However, I have a total gripe about them.
The thing is, there are some parts to our current education system that have come a long (LONG) way in the last several years. For instance, computers. Many of the schools in our area have computer labs, and the children get a few hours a week on the computers. I think that is Good.
However, some areas have NOT evolved. It seems that the school still thinks that all students come from families where there is a Mr. and a Mrs. Parent in the home, and that the Mrs. Parent stays home all day while the student is at school.
I would think if you opened a file and there was a work number listed there for both parents (not to mention different addresses but okay) I would try calling the work number, or a cell phone (also listed) before I called and left a message on the home phone. Not only that - but called and left a message on the home phone and didn’t call any of the other numbers.
It might be just me, but I find it highly annoying.
