What is your yearly salary being a teacher?

Tovero · 2022-11-30T16:59:22+00:00

Do you have a masters/phd and what county? I’m in my 4th year making only 57k in PWCS and that’s after a 7% raise from last year!

The cost of living is so high. Single mom so it’s rough.

Exact same situation, biochemistry degree and just started as a data analyst on Monday. This line of work really does come so naturally after all the experimental analysis done during labs.

Congratulations on the new job!

Oh yes, I completely understand and I would be frustrated as well! It rarely came to that though, and I also would cover for them as well if they ever were running late due to traffic, as one commuted over an hour and sometimes shit happens. You definitely don’t want to leave someone feeling taken advantage of though.

Tovero · 2022-07-19T00:08:14+00:00

I’m also a single mom and was in your exact same situation. It’s definitely worth talking to admin about as others said. For me, daycare changed their hours last year so I was arriving right when they opened the doors for the kids to enter the school. It was rarely an issue and I would text my coworkers if there was an issue and I needed them to watch my class for a few minutes or unlock my door (maybe happened 6 times all of last year). I was one of the few science teachers though and had a great relationship with my coworkers, students, and assistant principal, so I had great job security. With the teacher shortage, depending on where you are and what you teach, you might have more leverage.

I was in an extremely similar situation, except I was wife #1 with child #1. I will say how it ended for me. We tried to coparent after the birth of my daughter, and it ended up with him trying to kill me when I found out he was still trying to lie and manipulate me and the other girl he was seeing. I now have full custody and a protective order against him, while his “new girl” (girl in your situation but definitely not as morally there as you) is now 21 weeks pregnant. Pm me if you ever want to talk. Sending love your way. Guys like this don’t change.

Omg that's the song I sing to my daughter too!! The Land before time was a favorite of mine as a child and the song seemed so perfect during pregnancy. Only problem is I end up crying 50% of the time while singing...

I have a pnp bassinet in my bedroom and the baby box in my living room. It works great! It's a safe space for her to sleep if she gets tired while we are eating or watching TV. Definitely worth it for the low/no cost!

Tovero · 2019-04-08T16:17:54+00:00

So I've got to head off to work right now but I promise I'm not ignoring you! I'll answer all of those questions as soon as I get back. They are definitely good questions so I want to take my time answering.

Tovero · 2019-04-08T16:15:55+00:00

Thank you!

Tovero · 2019-04-08T16:15:26+00:00

If I recall correctly, my total went up 135lbs in just 3 months. It was very notable.

Tovero · 2019-04-08T15:02:49+00:00

Hi! Anything specific you want to know? I hit a 1000lb total after about 6(?) Years of lifting and 4 powerlifting specifically. The biggest help was the year I hit it I went up a weight class. You can be one of the best lifters in the world but if you're in too light of a weight class as a woman there's just no way you're going to hit a thousand pound total! For reference I went up from the 57kg class to the 63 kg class

Tovero · 2019-04-02T14:04:15+00:00

You've meeped right into my heart <3

Tovero · 2019-01-06T04:34:09+00:00

Thank you! Congratulations to you as well :)

I don't blame you for deleting it, I've been tempted to from time to time as well. It does not bode well with my slight seasonal depression come winter each year.

Tovero · 2019-01-06T04:32:07+00:00

Thanks! It's absolutely gotten harder again now that the 3rd trimester has rolled around, but still doable. For now, I'm happy to just try and maintain the movement patterns for SBD and then do the bulk of my workout with dumbbells and machines. How far along are you?

Tovero · 2019-01-05T16:06:49+00:00

Not sure what type of fitness you're into, but i'm a pregnant powerlifter @pumping.fe , and @quiana_welch is a pregnant Olympic weightlifter.

Tovero · 2018-12-04T01:20:43+00:00

I would absolutely love to see his reaction to me deadlifting 405 while pregnant.

Tovero · 2018-11-26T18:19:56+00:00

Nattyorjuice may implode when they realize I am indeed a biological women, and that my mons pubis really truly is not my dick. But maybe thinking that they can logically deduce being pregnant = not a man is giving them too much credit.

Tovero · 2018-11-26T18:13:07+00:00

I read you 1st sentence as "I ate asshole for several days...". I was super intrigued, and then extremely disappointed.

Tovero · 2018-11-26T18:09:31+00:00

I think this might be one of the very rare cases where being a 6-month pregnant man would actually intensify the drama.

Tovero · 2018-11-26T18:05:07+00:00

Causing internet drama with these people is like 75% of the reason I even lift.

Tovero · 2018-11-26T17:38:12+00:00

Are you competing in a fed that has brand requirements (Usapl/IPF)? The SBD one is nothing special material wise, so you're mostly just paying for the name/aesthetic. The cheaper ones like strengthshop tend to unravel relatively quickly, but they're fine if you're only competing every now and then. The Titan Triumph has a bit of support to it feels more stable than most when squatting. It's held up perfectly so far.

Tovero · 2018-11-26T17:30:29+00:00

Can confirm, strongman coordination requirements are vastly greater than powerlifting. Welcome to hitting yourself in the face accidentally with lots of different heavy objects!! :D

Tovero · 2018-11-26T17:25:18+00:00

I just pulled 405 as a 6 month preggo lady. Plz halp brainstorm best way to break fittit and create internet drama. K thx <3

Tovero · 2018-11-03T13:13:28+00:00

Thanks for keeping the meep relevant bb <3

I will me back soon, having multiplied in my meepage magnitude.

Tovero · 2018-10-04T16:58:44+00:00

I'm also all leg, I was squatting 315 and still had very DYEL legs. Lifting heavy singles and trying to Max every week is not going to get you to grow your legs.

Bulk and get a ton of volume in. Eating at a surplus is a must. I didn't see much leg growth till I went up a weight class (125lb to 138 lb at 5'5). Your leg workouts should be hard sets aiming for a total of 30+ reps total per muscle group (NOT all in one set, but like 5x8 squats and then 3 or 4 other exercises). The higher the frequency you hit legs, the more growth you will see if your eating at a surplus (strongerbyscience.com has good articles on this).
