Drama in the meeting room
Talk about drama in the classroom! Forget it. Drama in the meeting room is more like it.
My school recently had a full blown drama at a meeting. What started off as a regular meeting quickly escalated to a full course ____ (I don’t know the right word for it.)
Nearly every teacher was present. Instead of focussing on the topic at hand; some teachers just don’t know when to ‘promote’ their own merits. Later, some teachers began to pinpoint others’ mistakes/wrongdoings. Soon it turned into a telematch or tug-of-war between A and B. C and D followed suit. Some even egged others on. How childish can you get? I wanted to cringe and get out of there there and then. I could not even proceed to another page of the book I was reading. The upshot of it all that nothing was achieved and we had to do our work (by asking, etc.) the next day instead of being briefed on it. Everyone ended with egg on his face. What a mess!
The irony was that I thought if the school have to participate in drama competition next year, our teachers could do a better job than our students.
