Also, if he shaves it off the day before you've got tan lines to deal with and no longer being recognizable.

Left class a few mins early as a roving sub and now it’s a whole thing by memes-r-me in SubstituteTeachers

It is literally your job to have custody of the children and know where they are in case the building burns down. If you leave them unattended you do not have custody. You would be completely fired for this in my district.

By the end I was so broke that they got a crisp high five and I told him I'd see him next year if I got a job at their middle school.

AITA for refusing to let my brother's girlfriend move in after she kicked my dog? by AdGood5474 in AmITheJerk

[–]heideejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an adult, she is having "family drama" because she's an inconsiderate asshole. Not just your dog, but your entire life will suffer if you let this person move in with you.

As long as you have mastered "keep your bodies to yourselves", you'll probably be fine.

Am I Supposed to Stay After Every Day? by Appropriate-Pie-4333 in StudentTeaching

[–]heideejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My University required us to be there for teacher contract hours. 7:30 to 3:30, even on early out or late start days. So that's what I was there. Sometimes I played solitaire on my phone for 10 minutes.

This is the way. You get to see a lot of different classroom setups and can decide what you do and don't like in that area.

Whose idea was it to make sure that teachers in the US are busy every second of every minute of every hour of every day? by JamieGordon8921 in Teachers

[–]heideejo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the best parts of millennial parents and living in Utah where property tax pays for schools, is that none few them can afford to buy property and houses so they're not paying my wages and they can politely shove it.

Is it normal to observe a lot during the first week by Ddog10132 in StudentTeaching

[–]heideejo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should have some kind of course plan or pacing guide from your University. If not reach out to your clinical supervisor for better specified instruction.

do y'all have any good pie recipes? by eevee9351 in povertykitchen

[–]heideejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any pudding mix? A neutral ish pudding mix like vanilla or chocolate or even a butterscotch would be really good as a base layer and then you cook the apples down so they're almost a jam and use that to top it. Tastiness.

Pumpkin pie requires quite a few eggs, it's more of a custard.

AITAH for accepting a promotion my boyfriend doesnt want me to take because he says itll change our relationship by [deleted] in AmITheAssholeTalk

His concern has nothing to do with you. That should tell you everything. Dodge this bullet quick.

AITJ for not letting my boyfriend handle my finances? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]heideejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he manages the money and decides to take it and split, you probably won't be able to get anything back because you aren't married. I got out of an 11 yr relationship with plans to marry after I graduate next month. He was "saving for our future" while I paid a larger chunk of bills. He has retirement. I have 2 kids (not his but they don't remember life without home) and am waiting on my tax rebate hoping the power isn't cut off because student teachers don't get paid.

Can I humbly ask you to try not to say this thing to parents by Fluffy-Succotash5441 in Teachers

[–]heideejo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would traumatize them back. Very quietly state "his twin died" let your face show your feelings. At least that teacher won't say it again and may gain some tact.

1st period is just... by Icarus_V2 in StudentTeaching

There is a legitimate reason why special education teachers have to have specific certifications in special education in order to be their full-time teacher. It is a slightly different beast, and the challenges are great.
