[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many people complain about the laziness of people in other professions who have been working from home for nearly two years? Do you complain about your lazy accountant, lawyer, and tech people because of where they are located while working? I'm a new teacher and have spent days trying to get ready if we go virtual. I've never done this before. Ditto for at least five of my colleagues who are also new teachers. Keep complaining and you will have even more new teachers to complain about since many teachers aren't coming back next year. I know four from my school alone who are quitting or retiring early.[/quote]

I can’t imagine how challenging it must be for a new teacher this year. I’ve been teaching almost 20 years and I consider this year the hardest. Thank you for all you are doing and I hope you get the support you need if you go virtual. It isn’t as easy as some, like the OP, assume it is. If it helps, know there are more people who appreciate the work you are doing than those who don’t. Sometimes the angry and uninformed are just louder.[/quote]

My best friend is a teacher in a different state and she works really hard and she has also told me this is the hardest year she's ever taught. But she's also aware some of her colleagues are not working hard and are taking advantage of the situation. You can't say all teachers are heroes or all teachers are bad. The OP's post was directed at the catering of the policy towards teachers, not at the teachers themselves.[/quote]
