Tossing Children???

So Diana or C. Worthington or whatever you say your name is, you mentioned, "I saw him throw desks, I actually saw him do this, at little children. I actually saw him fling books at little children. I saw him pick children up and toss them about."

I'm no genius here, but I would think, as would anyone, that if you were really an eye witness to all of this like you say you were, you would want to mention what happened to the children in these incidents. Like whether or not the desks and books hit the children, or whether the children were hurt after being tossed about. I think that would be worth mentioning if you want your stories to sound realistic, otherwise it just sounds like you're taking cheap shots at this guy you're talking about. I mean the first question that came to mind when I read your post was "did anyone get hurt?" The way you gloss over those important details makes your story seem very artificial, like, "And this one time, I got run over by a car. And then, but, like, an angel saved my life..." What a cliffhanger. Obviously a story like that wouldn't be true, because, like your story, it doesn't give us the usual realistic details that real stories include or any solid evidence that would make us think it was anything but a far-fetched story.

Good try. Maybe if you just tell the truth it would be better, something like, "Well, I was teaching 1st grade at SFLS, but my personal life was kind of unraveling and I didn't really take the job seriously. You see I liked the bar scene in Suzhou, and that really took away from my teaching, and I got fired after 10 weeks. And I'm still pretty upset about that, because I can't quite bring myself to place the blame for what happened where it belongs -- on myself and my foolish choices, so now I spend my days ranting on ESL forums." Something like that. I'm not saying that's what happened to you, just...something like that.

Readers, beware of this Diana or C. Worthington character or any other poster that seems suspiciously like him. He is a disgruntled ex-employee of my school and has been posting like a madman on tons of ESL boards for over two years now, trying desperately to bring down the school that fired him. Take him and his wild stories with a grain of salt. And pray for his soul, the poor sap.
