GGRRRRRRR!!!!!

I just found out that the institution at which I work (you know, the one where my phd is) isnt offering me any teaching at all this year. I used to have lots of seminar classes and my own unit, and then i had my own unit and covering some stuff for another lecturer, but that is the case no longer- they didnt even tell me, i had to email them to find out, and then after a polite enquirey on my part, i was told my priority should not be teaching but finishing my thesis- well buggeryou! I decide what my prioirty is and should be, and it is my family.... how dare some priviallaged male academic tell me what I SHOULD be doing!
