Pretty sure she just doesn't want to work.[/quote]

DP. The OP said she wanted to get out of an after-school meeting. Not that she doesn’t want to work. Teachers know that meetings keep us from our work.[/quote]

In this case, the meeting is the work.[/quote]

Again: meetings keep teachers from work. They aren’t actually “work.”

On topic: I can see an early release. Years ago, I was held at work to shelter students. It was disastrous. Parents were trying to pick up their kids, teachers wanted to get to their own children, etc. I can see us trying to avoid that. [/quote]

Meetings are work you don't want to do.[/quote]

Clearly you’ve never taught. Being pulled from your work to be reminded to do your work isn’t actually work. It’s a waste of time, and it happens far too often.

Clearly you've never had any jobs outside of teaching.[/quote]

I have, actually. And so we agree! Meetings aren’t actually work. They simply stall it. [/quote]

They're part of work, even if you don't find them particularly productive.

Enjoy your meeting tomorrow night.[/quote]

It’s not my meeting. I’m not the OP. But I know what work actually looks like, and it’s not sitting around and getting nothing done. I may be at work, but I’m not doing work.[/quote]

You could say that about a lot of the time you spend at work. Do you bring your laptop with you to the toilet?[/quote]

No, some people can’t say that about a lot of their time at work. The rare bathroom break, sure. But when you have 30+ students in front of you, you’re working. [/quote]
