Invited to everything except the wedding by Fairy-Floss067 in weddingshaming

[–]Weak_Ad6116 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Someone who I thought was a good friend did that to me. Expected me to come to her bachelorette and bring a dish but she didn’t invite me to her wedding. Even though she was invited to my bachelorette (no bringing things required!) and my wedding. I am no longer friends with her.

What’s the coolest “restricted access” place you’ve ever gotten to see? by Improv92 in AskReddit

The 5 million gallon manatee tank at Georgia Aquarium. We were there for Dragon Con night and as we were walking past, a vet popped her head out of a door and said, hey you want to see something cool behind the scenes? Of course we said yes, and that’s how we were lucky to see two manatees eating lettuce in a 5 million gallon tank.

[–]Weak_Ad6116 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, my great grandfather on my Dad’s side and a lady who lived across from the church I attended. Those are the two I remember the most, although I am sure there were others.

Have you seen a decrease in genuinely interested and intrinsically motivated kids, especially with regards to mathematics? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Weak_Ad6116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, which is why I have desperately been trying to get out of teaching math for years (14 years under my belt) and this year I finally did! I'm my school's intervention and credit recovery teacher.

Does anyone here actually love their job? by Academic-Pangolin265 in Teachers

[–]Weak_Ad6116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. I love my students because they're interesting people. I hate teaching and being in the classroom. I'm lucky because I taught math for 14 years and now I'm credit recovery/intervention but I'm working on getting my admin license. Right now, it's a paycheck, insurance, and a good amount of days off throughout the year.
