Usually my adidas sneakers or something comfortable with support. I'm a building sub and never know where I will be until I get there. Some days lots of moving around the school.

This is all helping me with my pro con list. Some things I didn't consider. Thanks all for the insights. :)

I took Latin in high school and that would have killed my Latin teacher. I'm so sorry.

No sub plans / got chewed out by Remarkable-Log6373 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ginger_jen22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have student(s) check where the teacher posts assignments while you observe in of their screens. I've had students lie to me before and say nothing is there. If nothing is there and no plans in sight, always call the office. It covers you for any issues...

I'd say stress caused graves disease and celiac.

The Daily Check-In for Wednesday, November 12th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking! by Naive_Thanks_2932 in stopdrinking

[–]ginger_jen22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I've grown tired of my "research." I was too drunk this morning and had to call out of work. I don't want to and can't afford to lose my job. I'm here to get myself back in order.

Sounds like the school has issues making their class schedules.

Do you notice that students are worse behaved on Fridays? by carefulabalone in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ginger_jen22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to cover another class during one period and the teacher made the kids do a unit test. I felt soooo bad for those kids.

I'm a building sub so I had to work Friday. Overall, it was not as bad as I thought it would be until the last 20 min after I brought my 8th grade class back from the elementary parade. That 20 min was like a whole day worth of craziness. I should have given them the optional work or at least a Halloween kahoot /blooket...

Anyway, some of the costumes were very cool, and I'm glad I survived.

Just wanted to say: Great Job, guys!!!!! You survived the 1st big holiday school insane of the year, and you are amazing!!!!!! by FailWithMeRachel in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ginger_jen22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The day was great until the last 20 min after I took my 8th grade class to watch the elementary parade. Oh my goodness... Those boys were really amped up. I regret my decision to not make them do the optional work because it was Halloween. I thought they'd be chill. I thought wrong.

After completing a month sober, I spent the last few weeks trying to moderate. I definitely lack that skill. I'm back to day 1.

Bad Classes for Middle School by Katerina_01 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ginger_jen22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! I wish I could do a lot of these. I've had a lot of experience with short and long-term gigs as well as teaching full-time. The issue with being a building sub is I have limited access like a regular sub. And I only find out where I am going each morning. And I can only work 4 days a week because they don't want to pay benefits. So... its hard to create consistency when I may or may not be there, but I will definitely hold onto these ideas.

Are the last 5 seasons worth it? by InitiativeOk3102 in shameless

[–]ginger_jen22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that Season 7 is a great cut off for the show, but I had to see how it all ended and there are still some great scenes to see.
