[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nephew just started his first job in August in South Carolina. And he’s loving it. [/quote]

In that state, he’d better because he has virtually no options to improve his working conditions. [/quote]

I was let go in MA for not being a good fit because I spoke up about the curriculum and didn’t accept disrespect from admin. My building union rep said they had a two hour board meeting this evening and are encouraging staff to document their incidences with my newly former admin though. My union president said this was far from the first complaint she’s received about my admin when I spoke with her during my lunch break. Teachers have no voice and I had no tenure. Those with tenure I suppose do and they’re still speaking up for me. The union president is getting in touch with me next week. They want those two gone as they’ve caused issues with others and realize I’m not afraid to share my experience. I was already let go and I’m not one to pretend something is okay when it’s not. They’re failing my new former students by letting me go on a whim simply because I spoke up for myself and don’t have tenure to protect me. Teaching is toxic. [/quote]

I’m sorry about your bad experience. It sounds terrible and I hope you land somewhere better. Teaching can be toxic for sure. Hang in there [/quote]
