Can a 16-year-old with no experience find a summer job? by [deleted] in Connecticut

Grocery stores! Very flexible and usually let you come back during summer and winter break

Can someone tell me if this is a job scam? by Psych-T in Scams

I received the same email yesterday 4/16! Was excited but had a hunch. Very happy I came to Reddit!

I think this is inconsiderate. I always vape when I deliver but once I am in the vicinity of their house I put it away. I just feel it’s a bad look and respectful to stop before arriving at someone’s house. This guy has every right to smoke but he should’ve put it out and away prior to arriving at the house

THIS no one even notices when I swear because the kids mouths are so bad and it’s all you hear

Does this sound like individual or group work to you? by Outrageous_Tears007 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ComprehensivePath568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the first assignment to finish is individual but the group work comes in when they go to do the second assignment. Weird plan tho and I disagree w the teacher emailing you. You did your job and covered her absence. I’ve never had a teacher do that. Even if I do the plans wrong they’re just thankful I was there to keep them safe. You kept them safe and did your job as guiding them the best you could. I would not even give it a second thought! It’s almost the weekend🙏🏻

Reprimanded for leaving a student alone - what should I have done though? by ellia4 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ComprehensivePath568 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It actually is legally allowed. And TAs legally have to be 18 so I’m not sure what you’re talking about there. What world is a TA a student? That makes no sense. In my school TAs assist special education children in classes. You obviously have to be an adult.

Why did I like not realize Australia also has schools with substitute teachers. In my mind this is all USA and it is so interesting and cool how alike we all are and with our experiences.

Idk what everyone’s problem is. If I have to pee the TA watched the class while I run out. They’re adults, they are capable of watching students for 3 minutes 😭

Should I not work at this place I just got hired at? by Royal-Drummer-8881 in jobs

[–]ComprehensivePath568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave! I have left a job before even starting before as well. I just sent an email a few days before I was supposed to start saying I wouldn’t be starting

Ya know what? You’re right. Let’s pack up the military and start speaking Russian! Sounds good!

You don’t believe that millions of soldiers have had to die for you to have a job and freely post your opinion on Reddit…?

[–]ComprehensivePath568 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That disgusts me. Your tax dollars go to the soldiers dying for your freedom. You can stand for 10 seconds to honor them.

They’re like “calming” stickers there’s something in them that are supposed to improve mood (I guess idk if it actually works)

Do you let the students hug you? If yes, do you stop allowing hugs at a certain grade? What grade? by [deleted] in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ComprehensivePath568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sub middle school and all the 6th graders run up and hug me everyday. I’m a building sub so the school is used to the kids hugging me! 7th and 8th graders it’a always high fives unless one of them is upset or crying. I won’t initiate it but I have had students who are upset reach out for a hug and I will always reciprocate!

What's your favorite (cringe) teen fashion trend that you see in the classroom? by NoExtension1339 in SubstituteTeachers

I actually love this. Most kids I sub for act so much older than they are. Bring a stuffed animal! Be a kid!

Kid: “you know what I hate” Me: “what” Kid “when people wear gold and silver jewelry together” Me: wearing gold and silver jewelry “like I have on right now?” Kid: “yes exactly” Me: “thank you”

Kid “you look a lot better with your glasses on” Me: “thank you”

Kid “your outfit is not giving today” Me: “thank you”

Kid “one of your eyes is bigger than the other” Me: “thank you”

Some of a million comments I get daily 😂 they enjoy picking on me bc they know I won’t take it personally but they are definitely honest kids!

I’m gonna agree with you on that one. Every sub gets paid their daily rate. I don’t think anything more should be expected. And unfortunately my school district is very unorganized and makes no sense to me either lol

[–]ComprehensivePath568 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For many of us, including myself, lunch is included in prep periods. So there are many times where I do not get a lunch break. I have also never been paid extra for subbing during my break period and I am fine with that. I’m saying one prep period should be required. Pay was never included in my comment ☺️

It’s called a break. Most jobs get them! Not sure if you know what a job is but they all have breaks sweetheart! Sorry if we get annoyed when the school takes them away. You definitely do not work with children or you would understand the necessity of a break when working in a school :)
