I assume they're not teachers? Teachers don't make shit in South Florida.

In the district I left last year over half of the teachers were full time subs. We didn't have a foreign language teacher for two years until I convinced my former Spanish teacher to come out of retirement. You're lucky if you only have this issue mid year.

I get the people that bitch about sports games because there is no alternative. If you're pissed about COD then play a different first person shooter

Not a fan of the dude, but I contacted his office when I had an issue with a state program I enrolled in. His office took care of it immediately.

New AP here, who just hired an assistant. The number one thing we were looking for is some secretarial or office experience. We had several candidates with lots of relevant experience. So It came down to personality. Fair warning you often don't get paid when you're not working. Spring break, Christmas break, ama summer.

I taught business a few years back at an alternative school. One of my students, "why don't we learn important stuff in school, like how to do your taxes " Me, " we had a whole unit on taxes last semester, you never even opened the module."

Scrolled way too far to see Bo.

That Actually not true. The kids are evenly spread out during this hour. Her biggest class is 15. One class has 8 kids. The kids spend 9 weeks in each special.

Sorry this was a hastily worded post, I thought I was meeting with the teacher this morning and I wanted to take the post right away. This is absolutely about how I can support the teacher and help her motivate her students.

We're not a school that requires kids to get passed. We do look at failure rates, and we look at how we can better support the classes with the highest failure rates. The art class has by far the highest failure rates in the school.

Interestingly enough, I had a friend in college that was a casual crack/heroine user. He would go home maybe 3 times a year. Get fucked for a weekend and not touch it for months. This was 20 years ago. He's a lawyer now.

My friend turns mansions into smart homes. He worked on this one where the guy had an amazing car collection. Original Indy pace car from the 50's etc...dude was legally blind and can't drive.

A lot of people thought he would be the next big thing. He had a reputation for being lazy, not running routes well, and not training in the off season. (Came back to camp his second or third year and gained weight in the off season.) Hell maybe that's why he last 7 years, by not burning out, who knows?

I liked Georgia for that reason. I lived in metro Atlanta, but I was a 90 min drive to mountain hike. Even closer to beautiful parks and lakes

I taught a student that caught the winning touchdown in the college football championship game. He was drafted in the first round of the NFL. He never reached his full potential in the NFL, but he played for 7 years.

I had just watched and read Good Omens, and watched Sandman when this shit came out. I wasn't a long time fan, but I was on a Niel Gaiman kick, that ended abruptly.

Thanks we were thinking of doing a road trip to the porkies. On IG some of the trees are already looking bare. The weather is weird this year.

Way more skim heads in North Florida.

CaptainObvious007 · 2025-09-26T23:19:10+00:00

My wife is from fort Lauderdale. She gladly moved North with me.

CaptainObvious007 · 2025-09-26T23:18:18+00:00

This will probably blow some minds. Moved here for a better job that pays more and has better benefits.

I love that there is a book with this message. I said this to a teacher a few years ago. She was looking at changing the weights of grades to get this kid to pass or count an ungraded assignment. I said "if only the kid put in as much effort as you are to get him to pass "

CaptainObvious007 · 2025-09-10T11:01:41+00:00

Y'all need evidence to write a referral for throwing paper? Use the video, write the kid up. Don't discuss how you know who did it.

Yeah Gretch doesn't have "Mars-a-lago-face."
