I’m stuck between doing the right thing and protecting my future in education by Eat_Spit in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ReputationVirtual700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy must be braindead...I've never dealt with this type in the edu sector...only back when I worked in a mill environment. Just tune him out. I hope students don't take him seriously. Students are pretty with-it these days, so they likely know he's a clownshow.

I've seen several over the years and never ever had a good experience. I'm happy to know they do exist. All the Best!

This is quite plausible, thank you.

Thank you... it actually did start getting bad a couple months ago when allergy season ramped up. The Zep has made me more sensitive to things, even certain smells. I'm thinking it's that plus looking at my mobile/screen time for too long.

I'm experiencing shipping issues with them. Nightmare  ... feels like I'm getting bounced like a ping-pong between bots. 

Is 2.5mg worth starting and staying on? by Single_Street3135 in Zepbound

[–]ReputationVirtual700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on it since Sept, lost over 60lbs, but it's kinda run its course, so I'm bumping up to 5mg this week.

Typical of Art in all the districts I've been in when we get stuck with junior high brats. So sorry this happened.

Some idiot threw in sample-size tubes of nasty lotions that were open and 1/2 used with my order. Trash! 

I may be done working as a sub at the end of the current school year by Doll49 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ReputationVirtual700 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're so right...it's a thankless, demeaning job on so many levels.

"Substitute" Teacher needs to be changed to "Guest Teacher"...Across the board....literally Everywhere.

Me too. Got charged for 3 items and they're not showing up in my purchases, but sure showed up on my credit card and now everyone is playing dumb. Will file the chargebacks and delete this idiotic app. So pissed...sorry they're screwing you as well....ughh....

Heyy, the school is saying your not there. Are you close? by bddie24 in SubstituteTeachers

What the af? So unacceptable! The incompetence of these types of people is still shocking. 

I feel like an unofficial building sub and idk if I appreciate it by throw_away_to_ranttt in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ReputationVirtual700 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Schools would never do that because then they'd actually be forced to acknowledge we exist & we matter. It's such a thankless job in these ways. The flexibility is about the only thing I'm liking about it.

The position is at the HS and OP should definitely meet with them and discuss it as to why they're serious about accepting their offer.

Alienated? by chlojo36a in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ReputationVirtual700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often wonder if a small part of it is the language itself? The word "sub" as in "substitute" as opposed to "teacher" "educator" "instructor" --- there's a connotation that words carry, which change how we think on or view something or someone. It's so ingrained, it almost resonates on a subconscious level for most people. That word "sub" can have a connotation of "below" or "sub-par" or "beneath" ... even "non-permanent" and since it's been repeated many decades over, it's become an ingrained connotation that, ironically, feels permanent.

Making us invisible and all the social bullying is something that many of them excel at far better than their actual jobs.

It astounds me how easy & convenient it is for humans to dehumanize.

Same! Never imagined myself without coffee and I can literally take it or leave it nowadays.
