grr, arg

Just thought I'd drop in to update on my current educational saga.

Here is the rather timid response I received earlier this afternoon.
Thanks for your input. I've read your comments and will take them under consideration. However, for the first nine weeks of this semester teachers with 3rd period planning will have lunch duty similar to what was outlined at the meeting. I have had numerous teachers make suggestions and I will outline the duty rosters in another email that will include all teachers with 3rd period planning. I appreciate your support and understanding in this matter. I will make sure your duty station is in the magnet courtyard, if you so desire.
Allow me to dissect the response.

I took a few minutes to scan your document.

What I read makes more work for me so I'll choose to ignore them for now.

You're not the only one squawking so don't feel badly that I am ignoring you. You're not the only one I'm ignoring.
I appreciate your support and understanding in this matter.
It'd be nice if you just shut the hell up and stopped making this difficult for me.

If it'll make you happy, I'll give you an easy post. Whatever it takes to placate you so you don't get other people's feathers ruffled.

Why wait 9 weeks? It didn't take you that long to make this decision. Why should it take that long to choose some other possibility? And you can't answer "because I don't want to."

This issue is not over.

I think you should just see how big of a pain in the ass you can really be. It isn't like you're going to get canned.
