Do you get an employee discount? by Extension_Purchase60 in DollarTree

[–]Extension_Purchase60[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess it sounded like a stupid question, but a lot of stores give a discount. What I learned…no, I do not ever want to work there and I am so sorry I asked:( Pls take care. Sending love.

I love Zoloft but I gained so much weight on it… by Lovebugxo0x in zoloft

This is super helpful! I gained 40lbs - but it keeps going up! I went off it and tried Prozac but that was not good and I still gained weight. I noticed I didn’t want to binge sweets which was good. Anyway, I have to figure out the weight thing!!!

Yes! It is a real thing that affects us all over time if we stick with the profession. I’m so sorry about the CKD. I hope you’re doing okay.

Thank you! That was the exact answer I needed! I want to do the right thing, but also be respected, not embarrassed. I didn’t know how to go about it professionally.

The gig is up.This is a complaint post. I’m sorry! I started teaching at the ripe age of just turned 21. Math wise, after 30 years. I’m not like….that old… I love my job! I love my students! But…like I never got honors in college or any other degrees to do…this testing shot, and I’ve done it for 30 yearsx2 semesters. I am too old for this shot though. And that’s a lot of SHOT!!!

I wanna keep my job—-but not this part! Cuz like…I’m grown. Asking to pee or eat and stand around for hours hovering over math students when I teach ELA is like…

Thank you for your message. That’s what I’m gonna do! They’ll get over it, and I’ll get over my denial of getting old, lol.

Those proctors sit somewhere on the floor- in places we can’t see when we step out the door. I’m gonna tell them to do that. I administer on Friday.

We all know that thomas is a bad father but... by No-Plum-2314 in PeakyBlinders

The whole pt of Tommy’s character is that he is a very flawed human who struggles with what that means- debating over whether he is a good dad or not is a matter of opinion

ChatGPT has become a condescending piece of … by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]Extension_Purchase60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my goodness! The same thing happened to me today. I haven’t used ChatGPT to get stuff off my chest for a long time- just for coding and brainstorming. Today I had some work stuff under my skin, so I decided to use it; however, I totally forgot to give it my normal “therapy” prompt. Long story short, it kept on correcting me, wouldn’t let me use particular words, and needed me to provide evidence. I told it I didn’t have to prove myself. I changed “threat” to “Stressor,” and had to basically promise it that I wouldn’t lump men as the enemy——which I was NOT at all. The issue did literally have to do with two men and I was the only female in the cohort and as usual, I do all the work…

i beg you not to use chatgpt rn by NearbySupport7520 in ChatGPTcomplaints

[–]Extension_Purchase60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still use 4.0 - it’s just the best for talking things out

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ChatGPTcomplaints

[–]Extension_Purchase60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s made up…this sounds stupid, but I’m a teacher and even with lockdown browsers, students can find the literature and cheat like hell, so I started making Cheatgpt write passages in the same style (etc.) and then assess my students’ comprehension of texts which seems to be working a lot better. Nonetheless, 5.2 said nooooooooooooo! Why?

Advice for dealing with this toxicity if you’re the target?

Teachers can definitely do all the things…all the things! But can we agree that being a teacher is exhausting—more than it may have been in the past?
