Fu**ing Policy!

Does anybody else find policy a bit of a drag?!

Well I do!
What's eating me you ask?!
Well let me tell you...

Policies, I've come to the conclusion, is a clever way of assholes of certain companies and organisations, not mentioning any names (college), dodging the bullet. Basically what happened is when I signed up for a two year IT course, they said that you could do an extra A level along side it. I thought "Yay, it'll give me a break from my IT and its another qualification." Maybe i should have demanded that i read all the small print before hand because if i'd have know for one second that this A level, would be an anchor around my neck like it has been then I'd have told them where to shove it.

Ok get to the story Darren....

Well I've had a lot of problems recently and after christmas I thought I'd do the sensible thing and tackle my issues and by tackling them I would need time to do this. So i said to my A level tutor that I was quitting my A level, she said I had to have my personal tutors position. I said to him, look, I don't want to do it anymore and I need the time to sort out my life. He said fair enough, the next news.

I was talking to my friend about it, he walks past " You're not quitting your A level!"
I was like "Excuse me!?"
So I just internally thought to myself "Screw that, I'm quitting and there's not a goddamn thing that you or anybody else can do to stop me!" How untrue that was.

So he collars me next lesson and tells me to wait behind after class, which I did I might add.
He says to me "Darren, you can't quit your A level, because I've talked to the head of college and he says that by college policy you can't drop it until the end of the 1st year"

So its ok then head of college, I'll just suffer until I'm carried out on a stretcher! Thank you very much.

So me being me, I've took the matter into my own hands!!! I've talked to my counsellor and she has agreed to talk to this so-called head of college and get him to remove me from that goddamn A level course. Without affecting my IT. I'd already decided anyway that I was going to call his bluff. Let him throw me out then, I'd like to see him try!!

I have been there for nearly three years and I'm a good student, thank you very much, i do not deserve to be treated in this manner. Its not like i'm the only one, a lad in my clas has dropped his A level and he's still been allowed to carry on.

Bloody policy! Kiss My A**e
