[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think I can take much more teacher hate right now.  It is awful being accused of things I never did and have no control over.  [/quote]

tell it to your union rep[/quote]

For some reason Kimberly Adams thinks she represents you.  Because someone joined her union and voted for her.  Then she mad big news getting vaccinated. Does she even teach BTW?   If she doesn’t represent you, for the love of God choose someone else.  And no, saying: she doesn’t represent me, but I’m being peer pressured into not contradicting her doesn’t make you anything but a coward.  Put up. Or STFU. [/quote]

What, exactly, do you want someone who is not an FEA member to do? I cannot contact her to disagree, as I am not a member of FEA.

Every time I get a survey or my admin asks, I say I’m ready to go back as soon as I’m vaccinated, but that I’ll go back before it I have to. I don’t have time or energy or desire  to fight a few super vocal people on either side.  It’s also not my job to. I personally don’t really care where I teach, I’ll do it anywhere the best I can.[/quote]

I too am a Union member (ALPA). A few years ago we elected a new rep who I disagreed with on almost every issue. I felt the things he was pushing for did not represent myself or my fellow union members.

So even though I hate the work I ran against him and won.

It would have been easy to sit back and let it slide, but I refused to allow my profession be denigrated by this guy so I did what needed to be done to fix it.

It’s pretty sad that a bunch of teachers who are supposed to be educating students about things like peer pressure, civics, and self worth are unable to understand this. [/quote]
I will write some letters, but I can barely get grading and lesson planning done right now.  I need to stop coming here.[/quote]
