I am absolutely dreading going back tomorrow as my school laptop met with a terrible accident last week and the screen is totally smashed. I was not doing anything totally stupid with it, wasn't drunk or anything, but it was my fault and I should have been more careful. What makes it worse is that this has happened before, about 18 months ago (though on that occasion I genuinely have no idea what happened - didn't drop it but it must have had some kind of knock) .
What do I say and to whom? Really can't stand the obnoxious ICT guy who will make me feel a total eejit (deservedly in this case, but he does it each time you ever have to ask him anything and is a total git. He will enjoy this ). But going straight to the head is terrifying, though he is basically a decent chap - but he is the head.
I am prepared to be expected to pay this time but I really hope they will let me do so in installments or it will really mess us up financially as we are in the process of moving.
Bollocks, going back is bad enough but this hanging over me is making it so much worse- though I know it is my own fault.
