I am a teacher. I go where they tell me and do what they tell me to do. Like nearly everyone I know I’m not opposed to doing whatever the public authorities think we should do.

But after a very long and difficult week (month, year), I see these posts that say teachers are cowards and losers and whiners and idiots. Refusing to work. Laying around all day.

I feel dejected, and I wonder why I’m even trying to keep doing this. [/quote]

Same.

I had back to back 30 min meetings with parents from 6:30 until 8:30 this morning because they can’t take work off on the conference days. I didn’t get paid for that time. I could have said no. I did it to be nice. But I’m lazy, whiny, and a loser. [/quote]

What do you mean you don't get paid for that? Do you get paid by the hour? If you want to be considered a professional, you can't claim to never have to work longer hours in crunch times.  Come on. [/quote]
