There just some that make me want to go into the foetal position and today was one of them. I had:
The realisation 6th form students don't know how to use capital letters or basic punctuation
A student bawling his eyes out because he's been removed from A Level Business
The father of that student pulling him around by the neck and screaming abuse at him
A lad with a serious steroid abuse problem kick off at me
And a parent ask me "Why should I be bothered?" when told his son was doing badly in the final year of 6th form
I'm really not sure what I can do in the face of those situations and wonder why I'm bothering. So I'm chilling out tonight with some Baileys Hagen Daaz and trying to forget about the place. I'll decide whether I'm going in tomorrow tomorrow.

Blimey. 
I am glad that you are there to care for the kids that need you.

I made it into work and I've had an apology from the lad who was aggressive with me and the lad who was crying and then attacked by his dad has been to see me and is much calmer, happier and we've just sat down to talk about his future.
Crappy day yesterday but today is already looking much brighter.

It's reassuring that while you were thinking about the day that was, so were they.

you know, crappy as a lot of your days sound HI, I have hugely crappy days too - but when I have a good day, they are nowhere near as productive and useful as yours.
