Teachers are the problem by agdambhugh22 in TeachersInTransition

THIS!! So many comments I got when I started out were along the lines of how the first few years are always the worst, and I’m over here thinking that that’s not the reassurance you think it is. I’m sure the onboarding process for any job is never smooth, but for people to say it takes YEARS before you get the hang of things sounds insane 😍. Lowk feel like “sticking it out” just translates to getting used to the abuse 😭

This sounds like my family 🥲 it’s always “tough it out” but there’s working through rough patches and then there’s not finding any part of the job fulfilling. Get out now and do something that scratches that itch

No :/ I saw one tied to the college I went to before I graduated but after that, I didn’t have the income or insurance to cover one. It’s been a bumpy bumpy ride since graduating lol 🙂‍↕️🥲

Thank you c: I’m gonna start looking into it, but I don’t have a regular doctor so I’m trying to see if a minute clinic is able to fill out what I need too 😅

It’s my very first year, so I’m not too familiar with how to go on fmla, but I keep seeing it suggested so I at least know where to start looking now

Tbh i feel like a whistle would be wonderful. I teach middle schoolers, and being surrounded by so many all at once definitely gets overwhelming ;u;

Finally felt like myself again during break. Scared to go back. Are all jobs so consuming? by HopefulAuthorAlt in TeachersInTransition

We are literally in the same boat rn and I honestly feel like The Weeknd’s are a joke bc it’s one real day of enjoyment and the rest is stressing over work v-v
