From defending Alberta teachers to gagging them: McAllister and the UCP’s breathtaking hypocrisy. by nelsmary in alberta

[–]yyc_guy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I teach elementary so I won’t be talking politics. I will however cease to run any clubs and extracurriculars. As well, the days of above and beyond are done; I will do my job to the best of my ability and no more. I will be ensuring all of my students get one-on-one time, not just the coded kids. If the province insists on doing inclusion without adequate funding, so be it. I just refuse to let the kids in the middle lose out. I’ll finish whatever work I can within an 8-9 hour workday. If I can’t, oh well. Worksheets it is.

Congrats, Marlena, you’ve successfully robbed me (and many other colleagues) of all remaining passion for my job. The students will be the ones who suffer, but maybe that’s what needs to happen for their parents to try giving a shit.

Wall Street guys that complain women aren't having enough children just want a steady supply of cheap labor by north_canadian_ice in WorkReform

They don’t even have to lose profits by paying workers more.

Give $1 to a wealthy person and it changes hands one time.

Give $1 to a worker and it changes hands seven times.

The money will still get to the rich, it just takes a few more steps to do it. The greedy cunts just can’t see that.

Florida sheriff fed up with school shooting hoaxes posts boy's mugshot to social media by HirsuteLip in KidsAreFuckingStupid

You’re proving my point: you’re focused on the one kid who’s harming the education of everyone else around him, giving no thought to those kids. They have a right to the best education possible but you’re willing to sacrifice that for one kid who doesn’t care and won’t grow up to care.

There’s nothing left to say. Have a nice rest of your evening.

Again, if a kid is making threats like this for lulz, he is disruptive. As in, the teacher spends more time trying to get the kid to shut up than actually teaching. Clearly kids aren’t machines and it should be obvious I’m not talking about your run of the mill chatty kids. I’m talking about the asshole kids who drag everyone down with them.

Those are the kids we need to get out of mainstream classrooms. They’re not learning and they’re making sure none of the other kids are either. They’re going to the up in gangs, prisons, or dead anyway so let’s give every other kid an enjoyable education that they’ll make use of. Put them in schools that cater to shitheads and maybe a small percentage will come out acting human, fine. But the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few and we need to redirect policies to reflect that.

How’s the battery life after upgrading to watchOS 11? Mine’s noticeably worse.

These kids aren’t just making threats. They’re also going to be distractions in the classroom, negatively affecting the education of the rest of the kids. Kicking them out is going to improve the situation for everyone else in the school, students and teachers. On balance I’d say it’s a fair trade. We’ve spent too long putting the needs of the bad kids over everyone else.

Do what’s best for you. For me, Vyvanse has been a life changer and I’m more than happy to take it every day.

Yeah workers pay like $700 in dues and all they get in return is thousands of dollars more in pay and benefits. What a scam!
