I believe lot of people are familiar with the word 'unfair' because we live in an unjust world. This world is full of injustices to the extent that if you are innocent, you might doubt your innocence because of how lies were packaged against you.
I know one has to deal with all phases of life but as human beings, we all have to be treated fairly among ourselves because there is absolutely nothing different among humans, we are all the same. It's a small world, and we can't be in existence forever but not everyone knows this. The way some people treat their fellow human beings unjustly makes me feel sad cause I can't comprehend how wicked the heart of some humans can be.
In my journey in life, I have been treated unfairly and today I'll be sharing my most recent experience with you all.
Sometimes ago, I worked in a private school as a mathematics teacher in a secondary school very close to my house. So after closing time, I stay behind to teach some students extra class for one and half hours.
A particular woman called Mrs A has a child in JS 3 who was academically poor that almost all teachers wondered how she had passed the entrance examinations to the school. Some teachers even went to the extent of complaining to the school admin that the girl wasn't supposed to be giving admission to the school at all.
The girl was so poor that I also wondered if she passed through primary school. But we all know private schools, all they know is money, they careless whether a child is academically sound or not; so far the parents can afford the school fees.
So one day, I was called from the staff room that Mrs A wanted to see me, I was surprised because almost every teacher doesn't want to have anything to do with the woman and her daughter. So why me?
Surprisingly, Mrs A asked me to take her daughter private class after closing time. I politely rejected her offer on the ground that I've gotten more than enough students for evening class.
But that's not the only reason anyways, I've heard teachers while gisting that the woman don't like paying for any extra service rendered by a teacher, she just needs somewhere to keep her daughter till she comes back from work.
So I told her that I won't be able to teach her daughter, she left angrily but I can't allow my efforts to be wasted because the girl was very poor academically.
A week later I was called by the proprietor of the school that a parent reported me to him that I was rude and I've not been discharging my duty accordingly to the students, to the extent that he threatened to sack me if others should report again.
I was surprised because that hasn't happened before, I later went to inquire from the school admin who reported me to the proprietor, only for me to discover that its was Mrs A who lied against me because I refused her offer.
I was so furious, so the following day while she was dropping her daughter at the school gate, I confronted her and warned her strictly never to try such rubbish with me again.
Everyone present were surprised but I didn't care (at worst the school will sack me). I told her that the fact that I didn't accept to teach her daughter privately doesn't mean she should lie against me to the proprietor. She was dumbfounded because she didn't know I can confront her.
Till I left the school, I acted as if she didn't exist and go about with whatever I'm doing. I hate to be treated in such an ill manner, so to avoid having irrelevant issues with her, I just put her in her place.
