Sep. 26, 2008 - More Problems with Partials

So, I jumped the gun entering in Seijitsu's cooking badge into the finished column.  It was an easy mistake.  He came home from camp with all but two requirements signed off.  Just cook three meals at home, and let me see your backpack menu.  That's what the troop MBC said.  He felt he didn't really complete one of the requirements signed off at camp, so redid that as well.  Turned in his paperwork a month ago to the counselor.  Earlier this week, she gives him back his worksheet, all marked up.  Made him go through the whole badge over again, and decided she didn't like his menus. In truth, they weren't very good menus.  But the camp counselor had signed off on them, and Seiji prepared them as required.  I can understand her wanting him to do them again.  But the whole badge?  "If I'm going to sign off on it, I want to make sure it's been done correctly."  That was a waste of camp time.  She's within her rights, but it's maddening. S is so frustrated.  He's had run-ins with her before.  She just doesn't like him, and the feeling is mutual.  She's told me more than once that he is disrespectful to her.  I haven't seen it, and he's not the disrespectful type.  I have a feeling that with her, disagreeing is considered disrespect.  She is an "interesting" person, to say the least. So, yet another partial that's going to remain so.  Seiji wants to just forget it, and do it another time with someone else.  As much as I hate partials, I think I'm going to agree with him on this one.
