[quote=Anonymous]OP, I understand and I’m sorry. DCUM is a very anti-teacher place, so you can expect more of the “you have it so good” posts like the ones above. I know that’s not what you needed to hear, but that’s what you’ll get from people who don’t understand. Teaching is ROUGH and teacher-tired is a particular brand of tired. I know how you feel because I’m there, too. It’s hard to be “on” for 7.5 hours a day, responsible for 150 other humans with no real break. Then you head home to prep for the next day and do all the paperwork you didn’t get a chance to do at work. I know how you feel — the compensation isn’t enough for the toll this job takes. Hang in there and know you aren’t alone! Your feelings are shared by many of us. I’m coping by sticking to my boundaries this year. I’m no longer putting in weekend work, and I’m not volunteering for a single club or activity. This job will take and take, so we have to say no more often than we do. Good luck![/quote]
