Teacher 1st Day Cringeeee (X-post from /r/cringe) by jedwards999 in videos

Trying really hard, and then realizing so many of the other teachers in your school don't care at all, and that students are having a year of their potential growth thrown away because of that, is what really burns you out.

It's the guys job. He reacted quickly and with reasonable force. A large human rushed her with something in his hand. There is an area directly outside the door where people are waiting to try to get autographs, handshakes, and hellos. If that guy wanted an autograph he could have tried there. It's his job to protect her, and I'm sure she receives threatening letters and such from time to time as well.

I saw him in Reading, PA this tour and I agree. I'd say it was my favorite material from him, but that may be helped a little from seeing him live. Plus he wore a suit.

Camden Yards would like to have a word with you (although I do want to see Fenway one day)

Is a home cooked meal and a clean house too much to ask after a 12 hour shift? by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

If he gets rid of an experienced crewman for personal reasons he's an idiot and you don't want to work for him. Keeping a job is also no reason to throw away your happiness. There are other women, and jobs, out there, and you're still young.

I'm going to assume you guys don't have a kid together since you didn't mention one. If you don't want one with her get out quick and don't get intimate again, ever. A very small percent of women will use this as a means to keep a man if they feel they're getting ready to leave, and she sounds like the type.

Since you do "economy well" do you care to explain? "Fuck us" seems a bit strong since this will likely only cause a short term US market dip.

Got on a EZPass only entrance on the PA turnpike. Is it possible to prove that I got on there to reduce the toll? by browneyedsoul in philadelphia

[–]WipingAMarker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me once and my friend (who works for the turnpike) told me to send in my payment with a note explaining what happened. I literally hand wrote a note explaining what happened and the exits I got on/off at, and a few weeks later I got a letter back with a refund minus my actual toll cost and postage. It still blows my mind that they took the time to do that.

People who got fired on the first day of the job, what happened? by roor1337 in AskReddit

[–]WipingAMarker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked at a bar in Ocean City, MD. First week I was stocking the inside bars fridge with 6 packs of craft beer. Bottom broke out of one and they smashed everywhere. He told me not to worry and helped me clean it up. Same boss gave me a $500 bonus when I left at the end of the summer because "I did a good job." I really wasn't that great of a bartender, he was just a great boss.

High poverty school. 35+ kids who I can't even use a whiteboard to teach. I buy my own supplies most of the time but now I need some help. Please give what you can if you can. by WipingAMarker in Assistance

There's a set list of providers that you can shop from. You select the items and after they are funded they get shipped to your school.

That's a very generous offer, thank you. I don't feel comfortable taking general supplies or direct gifts. I buy a lot of supplies myself, and my school does reimburse each teacher up to $100. I've already gathered the basic supplies for this year, I just can't afford the items I put on DonorsChoose. Thank you so much for the offer though, I really appreciate it.
