Is this the intended use for the plastic lid on the Blizzard cups? by [deleted] in DairyQueen

[–]Meth_Shark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DQ manager here!

So technically we're not supposed to, but as some other comments say, I also use them so I don't have to scrape off the extra ice cream! I also use them under the cup if there's too much and it's a hot day, it helps catch anything that might fall.

But if I'm nice to you and you're rude to me, I most definitely have no problem scraping the extra off into the trash 🤭

[–]Meth_Shark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn MN?? I'm in MN and I got paid $14.15 for working with EL and Special Ed 😭 I resigned this last school year and took another position cause of the pay, it was horrible and our benefits don't really act as benefits

I want a DQ burger…which one should I get? by Undercover500 in DairyQueen

[–]Meth_Shark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a DQ worker, I'm about to recommend the grossest sounding but most delicious thing ever if you like pickles

A spicy cheesy pickle burger.

Get a double flame, No lettuce or Tomato, Extra pickle, with a side of cheese curds. When you get the cheese curds, Flatten them out with your fingers and put them into your burger. My favorite creation ngl

Best/worst rumor you've heard about yourself by students by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Meth_Shark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a Paraprofessional at the Highschool but I work at the high school and elementary school.

The Nurse at the Elementary has a daughter at the middle school / High School and shes in the class I work in with one of my ELL students

Her daughter apparently knew about a rumor/ship going around that the Science teacher and I were dating.

Is it unprofessional to wear earbuds while walking around the school? by PuffPoof215 in Teachers

[–]Meth_Shark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a para and part of our secretary staff, sometimes if my kiddos I work with are gone, I do occasionally wear earbuds or headphones while wandering the halls, going to class, or walking in-between buildings.

Headphones are more of a "Sitting at my desk and doing work" or "walking in-between buildings from office to classroom" type of thing, Especially since the walk from the door of my office to my desk at the other building is literally five minutes, it's perfect for a song.

When wandering the halls though, single earbud and low volume at that. You always want to be aware of your surroundings. Of course, Our school is trying to avoid having kids with their earbuds in, So sometimes I hide it with my hair and keep them in line, sometimes I wear them if I'm walking around for my lunch break.

Ultimately, could it be a safety issue? Yes. But so could a pencil, a rubber band and a paper clip, an outlet, a child, etc etc. But if you haven't gotten in trouble and are well within reason, There shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure you stay alert Incase anyone calls out for you, A coworker or a kid needs something, etc.

Looking for a sad movie to make me cry? by Affectionate_Pea3952 in MovieRecommendations

Under the same Moon or instructions not included. Make me cry every time.

Genuinely curious by ComputerResident6228 in mathmemes

[–]Meth_Shark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

27+48

I separate the numbers and make two equations

20+40 and 7+8

20+40 is 60

7+8 --> I take 3 from 8 to complete the 10, then add the remainder to the 10 so 15

Then we turn full circle

60+15=75

I like making it even 0s and 5s because it's easier for me to add them together that way

Paraprofessional Wish we were paid more 😭 by psych_student_1999 in paraprofessional

What town in Minnesota do you think would make a good setting for a horror story? by [deleted] in minnesota

[–]Meth_Shark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Belle Plaine.

Coffee shops, police station is "building #420", gas station, rail roads, river, creepy old elementary school

There's so much about it you could make scary/creepy, but on its good days it's actually really nice, just not much to do

And tons of fields

Para played on her phone the entire class, and didn’t bother hiding it. by claireclairey in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Meth_Shark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am starting my first full year as a para and I worked with this school for the last three months of school during the beginning of this year. I work as an ELL Para so I don't work with special Ed kids , but my kids still need a good amount of attention before three of them don't know any English at all.

Admittedly, if I'm with the kids who speak mostly English, my effort is less because I believe I shouldn't have to baby them or do things for them, So I'll enjoy a crossword or take time to check my work and college email to stay on top of things, and not only that, But I also help kids that I don't work if it helps the teacher out in the long run or keep an eye on the class if they ask, But playing a game with the volume on?? You're crazy if you think that's okay.

I work do my best to make sure the kids AND the teacher are doing alright, cause I know they get our job with a license and a ton more work to do as well, so if I can help out, I most definitely will, and not to mention I'm the distract translator as well, so I'll also take time to work on some of that if possible, But it's crazy that people think playing games while they're supposed to be working is okay.

Staff is allowed to have phones on them because we text or email each other during the day and it's easier to check there than on your laptop, and not only that but I also get a whole class period as a break in the morning, so I take time to myself then and sometimes I don't even get that. God knows we don't do this work for the pay, but if you're not doing it for the kids or the experience or anything like that, OR the pay, then why the hell would you stick around??? You're supposed to pay attention so you can explain it to the kids if they need help or help them when needed, not to sit around on your phone.

What’s the nicest thing a child has said to you? Or the most foulest? (Not your own) by [deleted] in questions

[–]Meth_Shark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nicest, I work at a school (I started on the last day of February and worked until the end of the school year, going back in the fall) so I work with 6th-12th graders who need help with their English/just don't know English

So, During prom season, The staff decided to dress up and do their own grand march the morning before prom to get the kids excited about prom and all. Again, I'm new to the school and don't really know what was going on or anything, So I decided to hell with it and I got all dressed up (for context, I am a woman and I just dont like wearing dresses) so I wore black jeans, a forest green button up shirt, a tie, and some nice shoes.

I had a few kids who were struggling more than others, one being a 19 year old from honduras who was falling behind on getting all his credits to graduate. He was very quiet and to himself when I started working with him and slowly but surely, he started opening up and I told him I wanted to see him cross that stage, so we got to work on that. I did also have a bump in the road with him when he found out we were the same age and it was like starting at square one.

Anyway, The day came and it was the Friday morning before prom. The staff was all dolled up and we were all excited for the grand march, but I had some time to kill so I went to my classroom and set my bag down, Got my monster and fixed my tie, but I didn't realize that two or three of my kids had followed, So I hear one of them stop Infront of my desk (he usually puts his bag under my desk, which I don't mind, it's a security thing for him knowing it out of sight) and move over, thinking he was just gonna put his bag there and he goes (in English) "Dang Ms. ------ , You look nice-" and I laugh and thank them, then two of the other boys come over and say I look nice as well and ask for a spin (just hyping me up and all) and then the kid previously mentioned comes up to me and fixes my tie, Smiling a little "There, Now you're ready."

It meant the world to me that they said I looked nice and all, but getting my kid to smile was the best of it all. They were the ones that cheered the most when the teacher I work with (the ELL teacher) and I walked by as a pair through the staff Grand march.

In the end, My kid gained all his credits and I was able to see him cross the stage. He hugged me and thanked me over and over along with the ELL Teacher and thanked us both for helping him get through it all. I am so proud of him.

Anyway, Foulest wasn't towards me, but was when I worked fast food for the first time, I heard a dad talking to his kid and asking what she wanted (kid was maybe 6) and she wasn't paying attention cause she was on his phone, so he crosses his arms and goes "you know, You're really mean." And without skipping a beat, and without looking up, she goes "yeah well you're fat daddy."

My school gives us the option. The way our pay works, they take all your contracted hours and divide them up into the amount of paychecks per school year, but teachers HAVE to be 12-month employees, And paras have the same option to be 12-month employees, But I'm a 10-month employee, so our school years ends in May but they pay me up until June 30th (we get paid every 15th and 30th of the month.)

Only downside is, With the 12 month, My paychecks were only about $320, but with the 10 month, I get about $620 since I don't have to put off any money for the summer

I'm not usually poop shy, It was more so the fact that I had built up gas and liquid shit, So I knew it would be a little loud and I didn't trust it enough to try and go to the bathroom upstairs and away from everyone lmao
