It is shitty that was a pattern of behavior but I am glad someone is finally standing up for themselves. Like I can be a pretty rigid butthole guy when it comes to getting stuff but a complete lack of empathy or situational awareness shown by the school and their staff is mind blowing. When I was talking about it in the office they all thought I was lying cause it sounds so crazy.

Idk if any of you watch UFC but one time interim heavyweight champ Tom Aspinall won a fight and said on the mic afterwards “if you feel scared to do something, that’s a pretty good sign you should just go fucking do it” and I believe that applies very much to people wondering if they should R&R. Sure you can but why not just see what happens now?

It was years ago but it was a lower card fight, dude didn't speak good english and they tried asking him his plan, he was like "punch him" they tried to get more info pushing it again and he said "punch him hard" and pointed at his forehead.... I don't remember the results of the fight but dude had a solid plan.

@babycat: got to keep those legs flexible so you don't pull anything, I need to get back into yoga to release and stretch out tension in my muscles. Stretching is where I fail the most with fitness
