I think my life would make a fabulously shitty non-sequitor 4koma
Today I was doing laundry and when I came back to get the laundry the laundry room was locked and I could’t get it open and I was trying to break into the place to get my goddamn laundry and I got so mad that I went to the convenience store and bought myself ice cream to calm myself down

I sang a part of Maji Love 1000% for my friend and I’m still laughing my ass off at how absurdly bad I sing
superhighschoollevelmagusloid:
teachers who complain about grading work
are you fucking kidding me.
no.
no you sit the fuck down.
LET ME EXPLAIN YOU A THING
do you know how hard it is to be a teacher in the current economy? do you know what it’s like to frantically prepare students for standardized tests that contain literally nothing you feel like they need to learn but you have to ensure that they score well on them otherwise not only could you lose your job but also the school could lose funding
which means that funding for resources like
- subsidized lunches
- computers for the lab
- the fucking librarian’s fucking salary
could dry up?
do you know what it would be like to be hired expecting twenty children in a class but then half of your colleagues get fired so you suddenly have forty children in a class? and then if you’re an average middle or high school teacher you have five or six or sometimes seven classes?
yeah in case you can’t do math because you were too busy making fun of your teacher to pay attention, that’s 200 or 240 or fucking 280 students. and at least 75% of them turn in every assignment. and then you have to grade them, knowing that if you don’t assign x amount of papers your class could get audited and, unless you have tenure (which some teachers now don’t get until seven years after they have the job - that’s SEVEN FUCKING YEARS OF NOT KNOWING IF YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE A JOB THE FOLLOWING YEAR) you could lose your job if the administration doesn’t find your class adequate?
also, on top of grading papers, some districts require teacher regularly undergo retraining for students with disabilities, students with english as a second language, sexual assault counseling, bullying prevention, and community relations? and they’re supposed to do all of this on an average salary of $45,000 a year (which is only slightly more than one year of university, aka in order to pay for their undergrad student loans plus their grad school loans they would have to do nothing but pay down loans with their salaries for six fucking years and not buy food or shelter)?
also, side note: teachers do not ever “get the summer off.” they’re planning the shit out of the school year, and attending training days, and researching ways to make their teaching more effective, and handling panicking parents whose students will be entering their classes next year. “summer off” my ass. teachers work as hard during the summer as they do during the school year.
people on this website complain about being stressed out for a lot of things - some serious, some not.
but imagine the stress of having in your care the education of over two hundred people while paying off an astronomical debt to do an often thankless job
AND THEN GIVE ME SOME PISSANT MEME OF A CRYING GIRL YOU FUCKERS
I looked at the OP’s blog and, sure enough, they’re 15.
Here I can do it too:Dumb teenagers who think having to do the work is harder than marking it.
I cordially invite you to to spend all your work day supervising a class/classes of morons and then spending all your free time (and holidays!) having to mark each and every paper of the work they do, and then also getting the blame from their dumb parents who think that if their kids are too dumb to pay attention and learn it’s somehow your fault, and not theirs for failing to raise their kids to have something resembling basic manners or, in some cases, teaching them to read, or maybe even the incredibly basic notion that if you spend all of class talking/passing notes about inane bullshit with your vapid friends instead of actually listening then you’re not going to understand the work.
Because it’s so easy right? Be my guest.
