#its not my job to educate you

[onlyfangz]

can we acknowledge how fucking dumb it is to refuse to list sources of a fact youve just claimed? if youre going to make bold statements then refuse to back yourself up, im gonna assume youre full of shit.

[ocpdzim]

what you’ve got to understand about working conditions in education (and also other care-oriented careers) is that if they’re shit, two things are true at once:

that does not ever excuse being cruel to a kid, no matter what

until those conditions are fixed, education will continue to suck absolute shit

this is because when working conditions for teachers are really bad, many of the good teachers who recognize when they are reaching a point where they can no longer be the sort of teacher the kids deserve due to burnout WILL quit. they will do the responsible thing and go away for their own sake and the sake of the kids. and you end up stuck w a combination of new teachers who are trying their best but won’t last long, burnt out teachers who are trying their best but have nothing left to give and therefore aren’t very effective at actually teaching, and cockroach shitheads who take out their misery on the kids.

we have all had terrible experiences with bad teachers, many of them flat out traumatic, but for fuck’s sake please try to look at the systemic underpinnings of the problem for one minute. spitefully declaring that teachers don’t deserve good working conditions or even the right to complain about bad working conditions because ms. whoever in 5th grade was a bitch is only going to create more of her. if you want good teachers then we need an education system they can survive in

"uuuhhhh izaya isnt a sociopath because he feels sad and has emotions and sociopaths dont do that!!" L plus ratio plus read the hidden suffering of the psychopath by willem h j martens phd plus maybe if you cant empathize with people who are seen as societys rejects maybe youre not cut out for the task of analyzing a series about empathizing with people who are seen as societys rejects

YOU WORK WITH KIDS?? can you tell us more? im an early childhood edu major and i cant wait to have more experience.. its so fulfilling

Omg omg hiiii yes I sure can!!! I actually work at the elementary school I used to go to, in a before/afterschool care program where parents can, as the name suggests, drop their kids off before or after school starts so they don't have to take the bus to or from school :) The school is K-3 and only eight minutes from my house, which is fantastic, because I most love working with younger kids and it's SO convenient!!

I work two hours mornings and three hours afternoons basically any time I can manage (though I'm cutting back this semester, since the last one was pretty grueling-- I was doing every shift I physically could, lmao). It's very straightforward: I get to interact with the kids by playing board games and cards or even drawing with them when we're in the cafeteria, or play games outside/in the gym when we do either of those! Fun fact, I arranged a pretty banger "among us" game on the playground last year, and kids who had me last year asked me specifically to facilitate it again this year!! (INCLUDING a family friend who I spent new year's with, so some of my time with friends was interrupted by first- and fourth-graders running into our room asking to be assigned crewmate or imposter, LMAO) I also do homework help and arrange crafts (mostly origami, but I like finding fun coloring pages and other stuff too!) :)))

As you can see from my rambling, I love my job soooo much ahahaha 😊😊😊 It really is so fulfilling!! My kids are so sweet and so funny and so cute, and also, I get PAID to play cards and color?? Yes please!! What experience have you had so far? Your major sounds like a dream, I wish you all the best!!!!

Sometimes I seriously question being a fucking historian and archivist. I'm doing the readings for my final exam essay and shaking with the horror of first hand accounts.

More than anything I want to go back in time and change how certain things went.

alsoooo even in my own cohort i know theres at least one person whos pro-life and, last i knew, wanted to go into labor & delivery. i mean if youre a fucking nurse you shouldnt be "pro-life" (pro forced birth, anti maternal health) but im fucking scared for her patients if she goes down that route

like at some point i have ti admit it to myself. it’s a 2am delirious ramble after a hard sad day. but i don’t think i like my job very much actually. i mean i do i love it and it was made for me and i made it for me too. but how come something that i love and was made for me and that i made hurts so bad and so primally? how can i like something that brings me so much stress and grief and despair so regularly?

shaking my fucking cage my grad school app is due friday and the only thing preventing me from submitting it is that everyone i ask for a letter of rec is taking their sweet fucking time

I have an interview at Chipotle today and I checked the reviews, all of the reviews from the past two months are one star. This seems like a terrible Chipotle.

twitter shitheads have me thinking abt how even in my "female dominated nonsense job" the uni still decided they needed to add an extra boss above my boss (for retard reasons imho) and they hired a guy w no experience in education who makes a fat amnt of money judging for the clothing and accesories he wears yet almost never shows up to our team meetings so basically nobody sees him do anything and we barely know him. but he probably makes at least 3x what i make. hes in the us rn btw on a work trip so all expenses paid, etc, doing benchmarking on a university that doesnt even work as a benchmark for us because the type of online course it offers is very different. this is all while the rest of the team handles the day to day work of uhh building courses for real life students who get real life degrees off of them. sorry im jsut thinking abt this. lol

i messed up the stupid multimedia essay comic for the fellowship application because procreate doesn’t remember undo and i didn’t back up all my lineart as a procreate file bc i NEVER have to do that (the mistake happened in coloring on the first page and it’s. kind of unsalvageable because i would have to apply that to the rest of the pages and i just feel so sick that i don’t even want to try anymore.)

it’s less than six days out from the deadline and i’m just ready to take the L. i’ve never felt more like crying in my life and my stomach hurts and i feel like shit that i feel like shit at all because look i don’t have much of a chance for this fellowship anyway so i’m trying not to get emotionally involved. but it’s a chance to work on the a320 however slim and i have this stupid hope that maybe i’ll succeed despite being woefully underqualified in my view and… sigh. picking my battles never felt so awful

Il faut faire la prepa pour aller à une grande école? Par exemple j'ai un diplôme (bac+4), est-ce possible en théorie que j'aille ? Pas maintenant, parce que le niveau de français me tuerait, mais un jour ?
