I don’t go to the bar and bitch about that?

I never really see my business type friends post on social media about how much they work. It’s mainly nurses and teachers, and they’re typically very sanctimonious about it.

You’re being obtuse if you don’t think it’s a common trope in conversations and media that work is a drag.

The OP asked why teachers feel burned out with their job and apparently answering the question is being a sanctimonious whiner who wishes every day was a vacation.

Before I advanced in my career, it was a non stop bitch fest from people I worked with. Yeah, the OT likes to make it seem like teachers are special when it comes to this, but it's not.

My thing is I hate dealing with the stupids. I hate dealing with the public. A public school teacher down here has to deal with the stupid kids, the stupid parents, and an even more stupid administration. I just can't bash them for what they do.

I was a teacher and left. I liked the kids and never had any issues with parents. It was administration that would always be the issue. It boiled down to, if they find someone who does more than called to do, they will continually add to your plate. That’s all fine and dandy but when your pay doesn’t reflect your work load, it becomes hard to continue.
