I don't think you could have handled it any differently. YOu are a voice of reason, and logic; the Demon Aide is another troubled soul to deal with. (when you already have enough on your plate) This is eerie because I have already commented on this post–but it evidently didn’t post. I don’t think you could have handled it any differently.

I don't that you could have done anything that would have netted a different outcome. I think I would have crumbled under the pressure of that...assuming I lasted 2 hours doing what you do anyhow! I hope all is well. And thanks for wishing Pam well on her writing. I think you might be the only one of my readers who did so, and I have to say: YOU ROCK!! :D Thank you for sharing the support and love on the internet. Wow… she’s a piece of work, eh?

If you don't like her when she's sober, you definately won't like her when she's drunk. :) Definately don’t go have a drink with her.

She obviously has issues in her life (and probably with dealing with the kids) that she takes out on her coworkers. She probably would do better by asking for help instead of turning her insecurities outward. Anyway, that's her problem just vomitted all over you. I'm sorry. That sucks. I probably would have shut the door in her face. You're inspiring for holding it together. You did the total right thing.

No wait, actually, I'd have hidden in the supply closet and cried. I would have defeated her with my kung fu superpowers.

This person clearly should not be around kids, especially not the kids in that school, if the principal can't see that and she keeps her job, something aint right. It's bad enough have uncooperative students without someone who is supposed to be on your side joining in. Surely as you are a teacher and she is and Aide you have the greater authority, if she can't respect that seems she is in the wrong job. Let's hope she can muster a little introspection to realise she was out of line. As for the destressing a long bath works for me. And escape into a good book, movie or whatever.

Norah Jones works well with me. 4) Make certain that b**ch is fired as soon as possible. Do whatever it takes. She has no business being near children and you don't make enough money to have to put up with garbage like that. I am so sorry that you had to experience that potential Darwin Award winner's tirade.
