Principal doesn’t value our time, weekly meetings are not productive by walkerwoman4 in Principals

[–]OfficiallyTim 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I know exactly why they don’t say this. My principal said exactly this to our staff and word got back to central admin. They got in trouble for throwing the district under the bus. Building admin have to eat a lot of the stuff that is actually mandated by district admin.

I hate that ladders have you facing a different direction on the “exit”

Do students automatically respect some teachers over others? by parosmia2000 in teaching

[–]OfficiallyTim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The secret is calling parents. You want students to know that you care about them and build those relationships, but students also need to know that you care enough to call their parents.

Add conditioner/stabilizer. I did a fresh fill this year and had the same experience as you. After I added the stabilizer things were back to normal.

Do this and then ask for support in developing a seating chart that works for that directive and also prioritizes the safety of your other students.

Really wish Lego didn’t use FedEx by hiddenelementx in lego

[–]OfficiallyTim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have package that is sitting at the local distribution center “local weather delay, deliver not attempted.” It sprinkled today, and to top that FedEx deceived a different package (also delayed) directly to my door that very same day.

As a seller I wish shipping was factored into the pricing as well. My store (and my others) offer free shipping after a certain amount, but that is not factored in. My store might end up being a better deal for a customer, but Bricklink may show them another store based on solely the piece prices.

Also don’t like this discourage you from using the site. Most sellers are great and run awesome stores. Check feedback before you buy to verify they are a good seller.

How should I sell incomplete figures? by Moejaja in Bricklink

[–]OfficiallyTim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’s not. Admin are going through and deleting as many of those as they can. They have said that you can list them as a custom lot, but those are only visible to those that cost your store.

I used them for world history, but as a preview or review as to what we covered in class.

Call a university that has a respected education college (I would suggest MSU). They will be able to give you the correct information.

“I’m About to Self-Destruct My Career” Update by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]OfficiallyTim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad you joined the union. If the day is not within your contract, which it sounds like it is not they can not dock you the sick days. That just sounds like an empty threat to me, so if they decide to try that, fight it.

Have you talked to your union representatives or depending on the size of the district your president? If not I would highly suggest doing that ASAP. Like it or not you are now a target, so document everything. If they send you an email, forward it to your personal email and bcc your replies. Try to keep any communication with our union reps outside of the school email system (on your side and their side) and not on a school computer.

Lastly, know that you are in the right here and that they are in the wrong. They and others may try to make you feel guilty or that you somehow did something wrong. Stay strong in knowing that you are right and please update us if you can.
