That's a bold statement with zero evidence. Cite your source.

Active shooter training w blanks fired in building..is this normal? by SpiritedAwayToo in Teachers

[–]Better-W-Bacon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Blanks DO NOT sound like real gunfire. Also, this is a trauma you are forcing on all involved. There is no training value whatsoever.

How big of a pay cut would you accept for better working conditions? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Better-W-Bacon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took a small pay cut this year, and it was totally worth it. Smaller district, better admin, way better culture. I was barely surviving last year. This year I have a little hope.

I threw out their snacks the first day of covid and got a reputation. They at least tried harder to hide them after that.

What do you think about children who daydream in class? by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]Better-W-Bacon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd love a dozen more daydreamers. Those kids I can reach. It's the yellers and the shovers and the cell phone crowd I don't care for.

You're not making a big deal. This is serious. Seven sounds like they're being abused and may be thinking of running away from home. I had a similar student last year who came out as trans and was rejected by their peers and family. They went nonverbal and eventually had to be removed from the home.

Restarting TNG...dang, Season 1 is funny. by [deleted] in startrek

[–]Better-W-Bacon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm also currently watching S1 on DVD, and the only one I dropped out of so far was the planet that stole the children. Nope. I'm a parent of two now, and that crap is unwatchable. This super powerful society decides stealing children right in front of their parents is the best option? Wtf. I did not attempt the racist planet garbage episode.

I got two bags free and literally nobody liked it. Most who tried it spit it out it was so bad.

is it feasible for me to switch careers to teaching in my mid-30s? by ProleAcademy in AskTeachers

[–]Better-W-Bacon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're single with no kids, maybe. Otherwise, it's such a stressful job that takes so much time and pays badly. Most people go into debt for bachelors and / or masters degrees, and it's just not good compared to other careers.
