[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really? 34 days left and she quits.

The email says they are looking for a permanent sub but they have been difficult to find.

So basically for the next month+ he'll just have a revolving door of subs it sounds like.

My favorite part of the email was actually for us to prepare the kids that their classroom will look different on Monday morning. I'm assuming because she took a bunch of decorations and furniture with her that she'd purchased.

He's so bummed and I'm bummed for him. [/quote]

Yes, really. I’m a teacher with a decade of experience and would like to quit as well. This year has been awful. [/quote]

Yeah, me too.  [/quote]

I am a consultant. I work for one company but the work I do benefits my clients. I am getting ready to quit my job, but I am giving my employer two weeks notice and my clients the courtesy of finishing out the projects I am currently working on (or in one case, transitioning it to another consultant) before I leave. I don't blame teachers for quitting, it's been a really awful two years, but it would be nice if the ones quitting a month before school ends could give their employer/clients the same courtesy.[/quote]

There are so many assumptions in this post it’s crazy. Maybe they were fired, maybe there are gravely ill…no one on here knows![/quote]

Exactly. Maybe the teacher did give notice to the school and it didn’t make it to the parents.

It doesn’t even matter. Teachers are allowed to quit. They don’t have to martyr themselves for other people’s children. They have their own needs and it’s 100% acceptable for teachers to focus on those first. It’s time to start respecting teachers and the choices they have to make.[/quote]

That's fine, quit, just remember that this is a reflection on all teachers - so by doing something like this, you are disrespecting all your co-workers because parents WILL take it out on them.[/quote]

Nope. Sorry. It’s 2022. The whole Demanding Teachers Be Martyrs thing is over.

One teacher’s decision is a “reflection” on no one but themselves.[/quote]

We learned that teachers aren't essential.  And some of them aren't professional, either.

Martyrdom is entirely different.[/quote]

You’re right. They’re not essential workers to be forced to work in person unvaccinated while the majority of white collar parents sat happily at home. And some of them aren’t professional, just as some people in all professions aren’t professional.

Glad you’ve caught up.[/quote]

THANK YOU, same as in every other profession. [/quote]
