“experienced” you say?

I’m listening but my thoughts are somewhere else...

Teachers aren't scared about COVID

They're just upping the drama so when they go back to school they can steal some of their glory back from nurses

If more parents took an active interest in teaching their kids the importance of education, manners, and respect there wouldn’t be so many problems in and out of the classroom. The same can be said for rude, miserable people who haven’t been in a classroom in years and have no idea what the teaching profession actually entails.

The OT and a bizarre hatred of teachers: name a more iconic duo.

Teachers really do take care of your kids quite a bit. Kudos to them. I’m very appreciative of (most of) them. That said, it’s a job. I’m not going to worship them or call them heroes.



I would have a lot more respect for teachers if they weren't the most annoying profession on social media.

If the kids aren't going to go to school on site, why do we need more than one teacher for each subject ?
one person would record the lesson for the entire country and every kid gets the same instruction.
Hell, build a bot to do it and you don't need any and bots don't join liberal unions that destroy the very thing that make them possible.

I used to teach, I loved it but left for better opportunities. There was too much bs for little pay. I would still teach today despite the pay if the environment was better. Parents don't correct their kids anymore and expect teachers to pick up the slack in areas they failed in.

I would rather have everyday heroes like teachers and nurses than what most people in our society look up to. We live in a world where spoiled athletes, actors, and musicians (use that word very loosely) are propped up as the heroes of our society. It is sad.

Unfortunately, social media + celebrity heroes have made teachers and nurses more vapid and self-absorbed and substanceless.

Pretty awful cycle. Not to say they aren't still more valuable than celebrities (they are), but they feed on each other and it's destructive for all of us.

Pssst, the guy you responded to is a teacher. He was just poking at the ignorance of the general public, I’m pretty sure.
