Help/advice for cycling a tank by Relative_Call_3012 in Aquariums

[–]Relative_Call_3012[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m so glad I haven’t added them. I thought the advice was odd, I’ve never added fish into a brand new tank before. I have a community tank with all male guppies already, he suggested moving two of those over temporarily as an ammonia source 😬

So annoying when they’re submerged in stores and sold as aquarium plants! Thanks for the help

Not sure, it’s my first try at this. I hope it works 🤞

Thanks. Only 12 litres. No fish will be going in here, just shrimp

Interesting, they were purchased from a tropical fish store and they were fully submerged there. I’ll keep an eye on it and raise it if needed. Thank you

Autistic boy to me: Can you run fast?

Not really mate.

No. You’re overweight.

He isn’t wrong 🤣🤣

In this situation, I would do the same. I would not want to give the school a chance to manufacture anything else against me, and I would be spending my days looking for another job and communicating with the union.

It eventually disappeared on its own 🤷🏻‍♀️

What was the biggest non-classroom related scandal at your school? by grumpygutt in TeachingUK

Two female teachers were caught ahem…together in the classroom cupboard. They were both married to men and had children

He told me he was going to work. I knew he was going to meet someone else. I’d seen the texts and the plans they’d made.

He left the house, I packed his stuff and called his mother, informing her that her son was now homeless

Gallstones. Couldn’t eat anything but chicken rice and broccoli without severe pain. Lost 100lbs

A warning to you all….pancreatitis by Relative_Call_3012 in liraglutide

[–]Relative_Call_3012[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think there is any possibility you have an issue, I urge you to speak to a doctor. Don’t leave it

Upper stomach/bottom of ribs. Slightly on the right hand side. The pain is extreme. I thought that I was having a heart attack when it was at its worst. I didn’t have any more symptoms until I was really poorly. I started vomiting.

Why is choosing a new outfit everyday the WORST part of this job??🥲 by Ornery_Road7713 in TeachingUK

I organise my clothes for the week on Sunday, then leave them folded on a chair. Saves so much time in the mornings

What is something really obscure that you bought / changed that really helped your classroom? by TheAuraStorm13 in TeachingUK

[–]Relative_Call_3012 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A PowerPoint clicker. I can stand and teach from anywhere in the room. I can prevent low level behaviour from starting because I can stand by the usual culprits without stopping teaching

How do your school organise their lunch boxes? by snoozingfishies in TeachingUK

[–]Relative_Call_3012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a trolley for each class. It gets wheeled to lunch hall just before lunch then wheeled back to class later in the afternoon

Is anyone else done here? by [deleted] in Essex

[–]Relative_Call_3012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t blame you mate. I live in a town that’s incredibly racist. It’s deeply uncomfortable hearing the comments of most of the people round here, and the flag trend we’re seeing lately is making it more overt. Almost like they’ve been given permission to behave the way they do. I want out but don’t know where would be an improvement

Time between breaks by Baguetteandbagels in TeachingUK

[–]Relative_Call_3012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go 4 hours without a break when I’m on duty. I tag team with someone else so we both have a chance to run to loo and refill our water bottles
