My 6 yo daughter's school keeps delaying school for 2 hours, and her dad and I are already at work by that time. Both of our parents live a good 20 minutes/an hour away, so it's not like we can just take her there nor can we leave her home alone for 2 hours. I don't know what the point of these delays are. Just cancel the entire day or don't!

I feel a bit like I’ve been scammed because my old guitar teacher just confused me a bit and wasn’t very clear how he was explaining stuff, then would get a bit annoyed if I took a guitar lesson off someone else, he’d say “you’ll just confuse yourself if you take lessons or advice off other people.. they don’t know the angle we’re coming from”. But then he’d say “there’s no secret to playing guitar, it’s just hard work and focus” but then he’d say “I’ll let you in on a secret that professional guitarists use…” so it seems like he contradicts himself and doesn’t explain stuff that well maybe.

It’s really weird because all his other students say how great he is and how he’s really helping them, but I don’t get that. He’s had some very successful guitarists as students and they all say he’s helped them… but what he says to me is all wishy washy nonsense or at least he doesn’t explain things very well. Then my college lecturer on my music class explains stuff and it all makes sense to me. I dunno, I feel a bit taken advantage of by that guitar teacher, like his quality of teaching was purposely bad so I’d get more lessons. I also feel a lot of anxiety when I pick up guitar now so it seems like getting lessons with him has lowered my self esteem somehow. I feel a bit like I’m going crazy but can’t pinpoint why.
and I don’t get why he chose ME to do this to? I’ve been told I’m fairly intelligent and learn things easily so maybe he feels threatened by that and wants to slow my progress down so I get more lessons? I also felt a lot of anxiety around him like he’s judging me harshly. He’d also say “I think you know more than you think you do” and he’d keep going over the same topics again… and claiming that I don’t fully understand basic stuff… I dunno 🤷🏼‍♀️

The place where I work currently I have been there for a year and four months but I feel I don’t fit in well with my colleagues due to my quiet nature and introversion.

At work there it seems to be more in favour of extroverted colleagues who are loud and love social situations and one of the basis for being promoted in the place is social interactions and being seen rather than your skill set.

it effects me sometimes a lot and I feel ostracised at times by my coworkers. Am I being unreasonable and should I keep trying or start looking elsewhere?

I have always gotten the "Sunday Blues." I read an article that said that many do and it is a real thing. I was just wondering does anybody else who works weekdays get the "Sunday Blues." I have created a poll because I am just curious. Thanks.
