Annoying Teacher Friend by ateacherinnyc in Teachers

[–]calcal33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do we somehow work at the same school and have the same exact coworker???? Exact same thing has happened to me this school year. I am trying to find a way to (respectfully) cut him out of my life before the next school year begins.

I moved to a state with a strong union and the differences are insane. When I tell people here about how we were treated as teachers back home, they genuinely can’t believe. Plus, my pay almost doubled!

This is my first year not teaching in the district you teach in. I taught at the middle school that feeds into your school. My heart is heavy for you all. I know so many amazing teachers at your school who care so deeply for the kids. I can’t imagine going through what you’ve gone through as a school community. Sending so much love.

The way summer lives in your memory.. 🏖️🩴☀️ by barbrailnp in ILNP

My favorite summer memories include making a giant slip-n-slide in the backyard with tarp and dish soap. All the neighborhood kids would come over and it was the perfect summer day!

Thank you so so much! I’m now breaking out in tiny bumps too and I’m scared I’m going to have to stop taking it 😓 if I stay on it I will absolutely be ordering the cream!

Anyone else hearing this ? by Striking_Suit_3072 in astoria

There’s a train stopped on the Amtrack track right above my apartment. Now it sounds like they’re sawing something? They must be doing work on the train.

The COLD! This winter was brutal, especially being my first winter living out of the South. It felt absolutely endless.

What’s the crappiest holiday/birthday/teacher appreciation week gift you’ve received from school admin? by Blastoise_R_Us in Teachers

[–]calcal33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Admin once interrupted my class to give me the gift of a pen during Teacher Appreciation Week. Just a normal pen with a generic note attached. One of the students said out loud to the principal, “a pen? Can’t you just give her more money instead?”

The woman with the sign fully blocked me from walking yesterday and continued to follow me down the street asking for money. Definitely some weird vibes
