A month after it was promised to arrive, I finally got my arrêté de nomination on Friday. A little piece of paper with an official stamp stating that I, as a foreigner, will be working as a teacher in Lyon, France. A piece of paper that's of upmost importance in receiving my work permit which requires me to pick an open slot at the French embassy weeks in advance so I can hand over my passport for 2-3 weeks. I leave in 3 weeks. Cutting it close guys.
The shittiest part? The official stamp is dated July 17th. The postmark on the envelope is August 18th. Classic French. I can imagine the scenario in my head. The paper gets stamped and is laid on a desk and forgotten about. Workers might pass by and see it, but won't comment. After all, "Eet eez not my jub too doo zat..ppp!"
Fucking French.
