So… Day #2 of the saga.

Contacted the union for advice, they say that since I haven’t received official written notification of discontinuation I should assume that I’m still on the course and attend lectures.  He said I needed to obtain clarification/notification from the school before any further action could be taken and that while I was at it to look into the appeals procedure and start compiling an appeal, ready for when they do make it official.

Checked the “fitness to practice” procedure for the school.  Turns out that I’m not anywhere on their little flowchart as they haven’t followed procedure at all.  So I phoned my tutor to find out what they were playing at.  You see I’m entitled to a full fitness to practice hearing, during which I’d be given the opportunity to defend myself, submit my own medical evidence and be entitled to representation (although rather strangely the representation has to be a member of the university (staff or student) – I think so that they can appoint they own advocates (who would therefore consider their best interests), fortunately friend from volunteer place happens to be a phD student in his ’spare-time’.

Well anyway she said that they didn’t need to do that, instead they were going to have a private meeting between themselves to “discuss” the Occy Health letter and that they’d get back to me with their decision (either (a)bye-bye have a nice life or (b) unbursaried study leave in the hope to impoverish you to the point you have to get a job and give up fighting).  I made it clear that I wasn’t happy about this.  I also pointed out that I didn’t agree with the assessment, that the Occy Health doctor had ignored the professional opinion of the consultants in charge of my care, and had stepped beyond her remit or expertise.  As such I want a second opinion.  She tried bullshitting me, so I just kept repeating this fact.

I also told her that I’d sought union advice and been advised to attend lectures next week.  She told me I couldn’t go, since I was “off the course”, I told her that she would need to provide me with official, written notice of this or I would be attending, she told me that the verbal notice from Occy health was enough, I assured her it wasn’t.  She told me that the school would be forced to ask me to leave if I tried.We’ll see if they do.  Volunteer place said that they’re probably hoping I don’t attend, so that they can claim poor attendance or go “look she’s dropped out”.  They’ve said to go, make sure I sign the register and if I get kicked out I’m to march straight to the union.

Tutor said she’d email me tomorrow with the results of their discussion.  I hope she realises that unless the notification is on official letter-headed paper; signed and dated by both the head of the school and associate dean then sent via recorded delivery I haven’t been notified.

Slightly worried that this may make me look like a bad person.  I think tutor was a bit flustered because I was completely uninterested by her ‘pleasantries’ and had no intention of engaging in small talk etc.  She seems to think she’s going to be the one to “guide me through the appeals process”, but given that she’s been the one continually flouting school procedure and reporting me to Occy Health (without my agreement, or chance to see referrals, thereby giving me no recourse to appeal them) she can bugger off.

I also think it annoyed her that I had checked on the procedure.  Kept telling me I shouldn’t be looking at it ?!?!?!?!?!?!  But it’s there for a reason and they can damn well follow it.

“But you don’t need to worry about fitness to practice procedure, since Dr Cuntbreath has said you aren’t fit to practice”

“I know you said you want a second opinion, but we’ve accepted the Dr Cuntbreath’s opinion.” – That’s nice for you, I haven’t, largely because it is based on the crap she’s pulled out of her own arse.

I also have a consultant psychologist (if such a thing exists), who is planning on wiping the arse with her over her declaration that I need 12-24 months of “intensive psychotherapy” – as he’s pointed out:

1) This is in complete disagreement with nice guidelines for the disorder Shrink diagnosed me with, so if she’s diagnosed me with something else, then what qualification has given her the right to do that, and what has she diagnosed me with.

2) Not even a trained and experienced psychologist can know for definite the time-scales of therapy, and besides usually take quite an in-depth assessment to draw any conclusions over the suitability of therapy/possible time-scales – she hasn’t received this training anymore than she’s received the necessary training to become a consultant psychiatrist.

3) And I’ve said this before, she’s told me I’m acutely suicidal and an imminent danger to myself, yet she allowed me to leave her office alone without any checks in place.

4) If I’m that suicidal, how come I’m still alive?

5) The clinical picture hasn’t changed since she first found out about it nearly 12 months ago – she knew about the overdosing and the cutting (she’s seen the cuts for crying out loud) and was aware of the suicidal ideation.  She has failed to demonstrate any evidence of a deterioration in my mental state. (If anything I’ve consistently been shown to be “improving” i.e. seeking help).  So she’s either been incompetent/negligent/in breach of duty of care by allowing me to practice for the past 12 months; or she’s a cunt breath.

Off to find another “occupational health specialist” – wonder if I can get the university to pay for it (I bet not).  Oh and my tutor was delighted to inform me that they’ve already made sure to contact the bursary people so my funding’s been terminated – how kind of the arsewanks.

Cunts…

Part I Absolutely Tops!
By Nevin Jefferson

     No, this isn’t about Tops with 10 inches. It’s the ten things that a Gay man can do to improve his life. For those who like to go by the book, you can on this one. “10 Smart Things Gay Men Can Do To Improve Their Lives” by Joe Kort. The achievement of happy, healthy, and satisfying lives by Gay men are knocked to hell and back. Due all in part to holding onto self-defeating behavioral patterns. Try after aggravating try, the same mistakes are repeated with frustration leading to misery. It’s easy to quit, which is the route most take here with the solution being to nip them in the bud. Then, start the process of moving in the opposite direction without turning or looking back. Joe Kort is an out ‘n proud therapist with 16 years experience dealing with hundreds of Gay men, in one on one and group sessions. He conducted workshops and retreats with his book, which provides 10 powerful and positive steps Gay men can take to achieve a healthiest, more rewarding life. This required reading for today’s Gay man can be ordered on Alyson.com. For those of you who don’t want to be spotted near, in, around, or anything else with a Gay bookstore. You can order it in the privacy of your own home. You could go to a Gay friendly bookstore with Gay friendly clerks. But, you stand the chance of the straight clerk manning the P.A. system then asking: “How much is this Queer book?”  

     I consulted with various people who I know about the topics and asked for their comments, moans, complaints, and anything else that they could think of. Then, we met for brunch where I had to break up fights, slap hands in grab of hair to pull, duck dishes, watching patrons flee from the restaurant after the onslaught of colorful language. Which made the listeners red in the face and a flush, better then the one you get in a poker game. This episode from the extremely weird and strange ended with a grand major group food fight. Being the polite and well-mannered Queens that we are, we started off throwing hot soup. Of course, we closed down another restaurant thanks to the unbecoming ghetto behavior in public. To redeem ourselves we went hand in hand skipping down the street, then into the bookstore where we all bought the book. With love in our hearts with a pending summons in the not too far away future. A very detail the lawsuit against my friends and I from the restaurant for ruining their business. And not to mention lawsuits from patrons who claimed that they were traumatize from the “Real Drama” from a bunch of real Queens. They’ll all be shocked along with the rest of the Gay community that I don’t have swat! Neither do my friends who are just as or equally PO( too poor to afford the OR) as I am. We can afford the Absolute 10 was is at a bargain price!  

1) Take responsibility for your own life. If you don’t claim responsibility for yourself, you’re not going to be concerned about your responsibility to others. To some it goes without saying, but to others it may remain never figured and rot inside of their minds. It’s all about owning up to the things that you do and say while at the same time learning a life lesson from it to help others. In the echoes getting louder is the old cry of “it’s my parent’s fault!” Nice cry, but the truth of the manner is that this only works until your 18th birthday. With 18 on the life register, your problems and solutions are yours and yours alone. True, your perceptions and experiences may be colored by the teachings or lack of thereof from your parents, but once you become an adult, it becomes this simple: “GET OVER IT Gertrude!” Coming from the wrong family isn’t anything unusual these days with products of a screwed up household being the norm. Mommy and Daddy have nothing to “DO” with how you act after you’re 18, grown, and on your own. Blaming an authority figure for your misdoings, missteps, and wrong doings is a load of crap in a long cargo train. In the event that you end up getting your knuckle rapped for something you did wrong, BLAME YOURSELF! The officer, judge, or whoever is simply doing their job to maintain order and prevent your childish behavior from harming or disturbing others. In other words, as previously heard during our brunch: “Look in the mirror bitch!” Blaming others for the woes and wrongs of your life is just as dumb. It’s time to be an adult while becoming a class act within yourself.

2) Affirm yourself by coming out. Another obvious step in growing up and becoming the best you can be. Closets were made for clothes and other garments, so if you don’t belong on a hanger or on the shelve, get your ass out there! Hiding from one’s true identity and self keeps your self-esteem low and your guilt complexes high. It’s a robbery that steals from us the full potential of our unique personality and the task of just being who we are. This includes the Breeder Boys and Girls! If you feel encumbered by fear, there is no way in hell you can completely be your wonderful self. By pretending to be someone and something that you’re not just to please others only does extensive damage to one’s self. Think of the loss you are imposing upon yourself. There is also greater safety not to mention political clout in numbers. Being afraid to stand up and be counted is why the monsters of history were able to come into power. We must NOT be afraid to tell it like it is. You have to come out to yourself first before you can come out to others. Coming out to a therapist is high recommended because you’ll learn how to deal with yourself as a person, while loving yourself as that wonderful person. 

3)      Resolve issues with your family. This is something that’s easier said than done with severing all family ties for the good of one’s peace of mind and total freedom. Pleasing your family can lead to depression, anxiety, and break downs of every mental realm. Resolving issues MAY seem to be saying that things can be worked out. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. In some instances – painful as it may be – you have to learn that your family will never accept you as you’re truly are. Which is a unique, spiritual being with a “gifted” talent to present to the world. Think what you want to, but remember this; you CAN select your family. If you have issues that cannot be resolved with your biological family, move on. I did and so did my friends and we’re better people because of it. We also choose each other as family members who provide love, nurturing, and understanding during the good and bad. An extended family will give as much – if not more – love and support as any biological one can, minus the bullshit and emotional scars. This is NOT to say you should not TRY to resolve matters and keep trying it. It can take years, sometimes decades to get past the hidebound ideologies of the ones closest to you. Then ,there will come a time when it doesn’t manner anymore and you can care less how and what they feel. Trying to make right of a wrong situation with sincerity, love, and forgiveness makes you the better person that you know you are. 

4) Graduate from eternal adolescence. The best teacher is life achieved and acquired is at the school of hard knocks! Experience is the best teacher. Grow up and act responsibly and you will be treated responsibly. If you can’t accept this fact, then don’t bitch when society keeps looking down its nose at your sophomoric antics. And don’t be the least bit shocked when your own peers do not want anything to do with you. Not to mention the possibility that the mere thought of your name would induce vomiting.  

5) Avoid or overcome sexual addiction. My brunch club called this one: “We shall overcum some day!” It’s a private joke between those of the celibate sect for the simple joy of a cheap thrill. Okay gang, here’s where sexual addiction is broken down for your understanding and grasp of it. Sexual addiction is merely an extension of the feeling of low self worth and low self-esteem. The need to be loved and have the best of hot sex underneath the sheets runs rapid in a horny mind. Loneliness is a mo-fo and quite unbearable. It also leads to the want of sexual desire that has yet to be filled. One finds themselves in the world of casual and meaningless sex of the unsatisfactory lay. Being a slut is NOT going to allow you to find “Mr. Right.” The only one you will find with this sort of behavior is “Mr. Right Now”. And he won’t be there very long. Along with that, the POTENTIAL “Mr. Rights” out there are going to see you for the slut you are and run screaming into the night as you approach. Then, you’ll end up doing your part; sending tricks – past, present, and future – to the V.D. Clinic. You’ll rack up ‘frequent layers miles’ for a free shot of penicillin. You’ll also feel alone, empty, and cheap, which will fan the flames of your mental hell. As my mother told me: “Nobody wants something that everyone else had. You don’t know where they been or who they’ve been with. Have some tact about yourself while maintaining yourself as a gentleman. Everybody loves a nice guy. Everyone had a slut they’re not talking about, except to their friends who’ll be next in line for a piece. Listen to your old girl!” Thanks Ma!

The real power behind the Crown has pushed Campbell to the point that he has had to draw back the curtain and show the people who is actually pulling his strings. It is obvious that Campbell and his government have sold their souls to the hedge funds in exchange for power.
As the world’s economy grinds to a rolling roadblock, the commitments Campbell made to the power brokers cannot be met without drastically increasing taxes, hence the

Horribly Stifling Tax.

Saturday, Carole James was looking for votes from suffering forestry workers and their families. Her great plan is to INCREASE TAXES, this time on raw log exports. This, of course, will raise the price of logs high enough that we won’t be able to sell them, just like the lumber we can’t sell profitably any more either. It takes a special kind of mental exercise to get your head around the idea that raising taxes will create jobs.

From Woodmarkets.com press release of 07/09/12- back before things got really bad!

VANCOUVER, BC, September 12, 2007 — Sawmills throughout the U.S. and Canada achieved dismal operating results in 2006 where the profits at “average”1 mills were barely positive and slipped into negative territory in the second quarter of 2007, when lumber prices collapsed to below the cost of production. The cost of logs delivered to the mills have generally been rising in North America and, in conjunction with low lumber prices, have caused sawmills to incur deep operating losses that have not been seen since 1991. These and other findings were released today in the latest issue of a report produced by International WOOD Markets and published by International WOOD Markets, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and The Beck Group. The report is the most comprehensive compilation available on global timber, lumber and sawnwood cost benchmarking, covering over 170 sawmills in 29 major forest products producing regions of the world.

Carole’s discussion of cutting business taxes, (for a year), shows she’s looking up from the solidarity playbook, but she needs to discover profits. If forest companies could make more profit cutting the logs up and then selling them, they would, it’s called value-added! Current costs in BC for cutting lumber are far above the price anyone will willingly pay for the lumber. While we’ve been increasingly pricing ourselves out of the market, Campbell’s carbon tax was the death nell. The forest industry selling raw logs is the same as eating your seed corn.

Remember, there is an alternative, vote Reform BC.

O…K. So Rihanna assaulted herself???

Do you know what?

I’m past caring.
