[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A few days ago on the jobs forum someone was asking about what they should do after losing their job.  The poster was a single mom of a young daughter.   Multiple posters said they should immediately apply to be a substitute teacher.

Were posters really recommending this thinking that this woman should expect, as part of substitute teaching, to jump into fights and to adminster life-saving techniques to stop blood loss (bare handed, mind you!?)[/quote]

No and that's a weird take.  But anything more than what that man did would be acceptable. [b]Even a panicked look or a frenzied attempt[/b] to quieten the scene or move kids away from it is better than what we have witnessed.[/quote]

No, hysteria is never helpful in an emergency.   What is wrong with you.

And no, it's not a "weird take."   It's exactly what posters here are saying--that teachers should intervene.   Maybe not all, but some.   If they expect this guy to intervene, why not the single mother who is just looking for temp work after losing her job?   Maybe this guy also just lost his real job and is subbing temporarily.
