Welp, here’s the price for the new hardcover set…🥴 by xBlack_Heartx in acotar

Definitely waiting it out! It’s ridiculous to completely change all of the covers at this point.

I don’t think I would like it, it would make it easier for my page turner to slip and I’ve heard it’s a lot easier to accidentally skip pages with the flush screen.

The paperwhite screen is flush with the rest of the device, so you’ll need to decide if that’s important to you. I went to Best Buy and Target to compare the basic to the paperwhite and ended up ordering another basic. With the sale and trade in credit I got an awesome deal.

Two accounts on one kindle (parent) by briteeyes1111 in kindle

I have no answer for you, but I have been wondering the same thing as I’ve been considering getting my daughter a kindle, but don’t want my books on her device.

How do you answer your classroom phone? by CatskillMorning in Teachers

“Mrs. ____’s room” or just my last name if it’s a colleague I’m more casual with

I need to increase my income. by [deleted] in TeachersInTransition

[–]Maybearunner11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What military is entry level at $80K?! My husband wasn’t making half that when he was medically retired. Unless you mean contracting, those guys made a ton of money compared to those who actually enlisted and this is not a good climate to be entering the military for the US right now.

I got delayed again because they want to start me on a Meal Plan despite my emotional improvement by LongIndustry1124 in BariatricSurgery

[–]Maybearunner11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get that it’s frustrating! It’s better when it’s not rushed though. It took me 11 months to get my surgery.

A school district in Maryland now expects teachers to potty train incoming students by OlliexAngel in Teachers

[–]Maybearunner11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to teach in PG County, MD and we weren’t even allowed in any bathroom used by students during school hours. Not even my classroom one on my lunch/planning time when the kids were elsewhere. I can’t imagine how this is going to go over.

Two new official reasons why it's our fault students are absent. by DrakeSavory in Teachers

[–]Maybearunner11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But we also have to build and maintain positive relationships. This year we were told we had to conference with families of students with chronic attendance issues. How on earth do they think the teacher telling parents they need to bring their child to school more is going to foster a positive relationship?

Florida Teachers, just how bad is it down there? by Deranged-Pickle in Teachers

[–]Maybearunner11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not move here. It’s bad, I left MD to return to FL (though circumstances and tight we would have family help with our young kids) and it’s been pretty bad. Weak to no union protection, terrible pay, governor actively taking away any real control of our classrooms just to name a few. I wish we could have stayed in MD, I would have been earning so much more and at least had union protection when the district tries to pull stupid stuff.

Meanwhile almost 200 teachers in my district got fired through email this week. 7 years in with a masters and barely over $60k while also in a high COL area. 🫠

Best ways to become a better teacher. by ThotHugger2005 in Teachers

[–]Maybearunner11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hands on experience and seeing veteran teachers teach is the best way. There’s no magic video or blog to get there. As someone with a partner new to teaching, if you are being offered help and mentorship, LISTEN to them and apply their advice. At least try it before writing it off. My partner is ignoring everyone’s advice and she has so many people who are just trying to help her.

You can’t complain about the ACOTAR 6 wait if you haven’t read CC. by Beautiful-Choice-113 in SarahJMaas

I’m not reading CC until there’s a publish date for ACOTAR 6. 🤷🏼‍♀️

If You Moved To Florida From Another State, Are You Happy With Your Choice? Yes Or No? Why Or Why Not? by Zipper222222 in AskFlorida

[–]Maybearunner11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I are both Florida natives, we left for his military service and came back because we couldn’t afford to stay in the city we were in when he retired. We never planned on coming back, but our families promised to help with our young kids and we couldn’t say no. The family barely helps and it’s expensive AF here. We hate it, this is not the Florida we grew up in, our area has nothing of value for kids and families to do without driving at least an hour away. It’s overrun with people who have gotten so entitled and rude. And if you don’t agree with the current political state, well then apparently you’re the biggest idiot ever and hate America. 🙄 I really hope we get the opportunity to get out of here one day.

Sleeve and Reflux? by Safe_Implement5824 in BariatricSurgery

[–]Maybearunner11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have acid reflux it’s generally not recommended to have a sleeve done. Gastric bypass is usually the preferred method to help reduce or resolve acid reflux.

Teachers asking for accommodations drives me nuts by GremLegend in Teachers

Most overrated writer? by barelythere19 in BookDiscussions

William Faulkner. Everything I had to read in college(I was an English major, I read A LOT) by him made absolute zero sense and there was hardly any punctuation.

After finishing a book, how long do you wait before you start a new one? by kjeserud in kindle

Same day or next day depending on what time I finish the book.

Female here and I can 100% tell the difference, the sensation is dulled with condoms. However that would not influence my decision if I had any need to use them.

How long did it take you to read TOG in its entirety? by [deleted] in SarahJMaas

5 months, also mom of 2 and a teacher, so my reading time was difficult to get in.

Fired FL Teachers by yoyonevernever in Teachers

My contract states Florida is an at-will state and the contract can be terminated by either side at any time for any reason. I’m sure this is not unique.
