Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know everyone does, but can't I just hold a pity party for myself? Have to go undo the mistake I met.
Briefly.
I thought I was giving my girls in my English class a good grade. Think again! I misunderstood the grading system (based on 6 levels rather than five!). I am so embarrased! And I"ll be blushing like crazy tomorrow when I try and explain it all to the principal!!!
Hope I still have a job tomorrow!
Posted by Rachel Ann at February 5, 2005 08:56 PMWhen Lovely Wife first got around to talking about school I thought I would impress her with my grade average. 3.8 is pretty sweet, right? She thought I was bragging about being a retard. Over there they use a 1-5 scale with 1 being the best. A 3.8 would have a difficult time getting a job as a janitor.
We had a decent laugh once we straightened things out.
