college update again

[Saitaina]

Alright, I was sitting on this for a while because the outcome was so depressing I just haven't had the energy to put it in writing.  

We (my mother and myself) went to the appeals board regarding my teacher flunking me from phlebotomy and low and behold...they took the teachers side before we even stepped in there.  They claimed I had horrid bedside manner and Susan was within her rights to flunk me and several other things I care not to remember.  All of it lies but as they wouldn't listen to a word I said, oh well.  The two most poignant lies though I would like to point out here just to show what I was dealing with.  

They said, and I quote "We had gone back and asked your patients what they thought of you" now while I could accept this if they were just talking about the hospital (although how they knew which patients were mine when we kept no records I would like to know) but the VA had people running in and out constantly as it was an outpatient facility.  If I couldn't find one of my patients five seconds after his test I doubt they could find him two months.  Plus, I'm sorry but even those with the best of memory don't remember who exactly drew their blood two months after the fact and if they do, it was a horrendous experience and they would have complained THEN.  *sigh*

Lie number two came just as we were leaving when my mother informed them that Susan had never graded the finals before passing everyone.  The head of nursing (why she was there I don't know) got all huffy and said that all the finals were graded.  Well as I had the final in my hand, un graded, un marked, I know that was a bold faced lie.  Susan had even told my mother when she went in there to talk with her that none of the finals were graded.

So basically, I'm not allowed to be a phelobotomist.  My mother is currently in talks with disability services in regards to action against the college due to the fact that they failed me because of my social disabilities, something I can't help, something I can't just get over as my teacher so elegantly put it.

Okay when the bad guys have more morals then you do...that's a bad sign, isn't it?
