Alright lots of us got hit with the fucking infamous pink slip again, even teachers are growing sick of it. Even me as a student is completely annoyed by this goddamn bureaucracy which doesn't make any sense.
Yes, getting me motivated to fill out those sorts of useless is like telling me to jump from Level 102 of Empire State Building.It never happens. The office or Ms Hsu can expect at least 2 god damn weeks before they can expect me to hand it back.
Alright after all this rough talk let's get into the real deal of this topic, I will try to be as ignorant as I can:
1.Why have two systems working in a tandem against each other? This is what puzzles me. For starters, you don't need two roll system at all . In no sense the idea of having a separate system for period 1 and another for the rest of the day is useful. School Records do get confusing and you don't need to add more to it's complexity! By the way, if I am marked absent on the period 1 system, I am flagged as away for the whole day even though I am here for the rest of that day ! What sense does this make? ZERO! Or even negative is acceptable in this case. How on the fucking earth can such easy job can be made that hard? Can't they just simplify the whole jargonso there's less headache for everyone?
One system dealing with all the roll call makes life for everyone a lot easier, less confusing school records, no more period 1 away marked as whole day absent.No more Ms Hsu chasing us down ECML for not being here even though being here. That's what it matters.
2.Another matter which fascinates me is that there is little or no flexibility in school operation. When we asked from reform in the roll system, Ms Hsu answered us cold that "I didn't make the rules and I am not the one to talk to". That is uprightly lazy, isn't it? Student communicates through year-level coordinators to express their concern, isn't that how it works? But in this case she didn't listen to our concerns on how school operates and that totally violates the basic principles of being a year-level coordinator.
3. What's going on with the office? Aren't they blind or just being totally inefficient on their job ? This Wednesday period 1, Ms Carrington asked me to hand in the roll to the office. I handed it in to them and guess what happened? Our whole chemistry class got hit by the inconceivable pink slips which mean our class were away for the whole day. This is just pure stupidity. I did hand the roll in and we are all here. The office? They completely ignored our class' roll. They might have treated it as waste paper and threw it away and this just shows how careless they are. They don't read what's on there and that's just fucking unacceptable.
Can we have a more efficient office so that things don't get juggled around and lost? It created more god damn headaches more than anything useful.
4. Expanding on the term inflexibility, another fact that such rules "school uniform must be worn correctly on the way to school and back" (which is to protect the school image outside) exists in Blackburn High . Seriously, no one outside of school cares about whether you are wearing uniform correctly or not, people often add on another jacket just to keep them warm. Does anyone want to catch a cold walking to school? Excatly. The rebuttal for this is, one can wear something not visible under school uniform. Doesn't the school realises that it gets warm midday at times? Such outdated conservative rules which doesn't affect behaviour should be dug up and thrown out of the window instantly.
At the end of the day, everyone is completely annoyed, disgraced and disgruntled by the Blackburn High School's Roll System which its Bureaucracy ,Stupidity and inflexibility contain no bounds. Really, its getting worse and worse each day. In the end everyone loses and no one wins, just like a hung parliament. But at least, hung parliament is a better thing than an unspeakably inefficient school roll system by a factor of 2^64. As always two-party politics is a bad thing.
