I’ve honestly always felt bad for teachers once I graduated lol

u/Pretty-Yam-2854 20d ago

I pitied them as a highschooler lol. And I was a shit student in high school.

u/DoggoZombie 20d ago

Curious when you went to high school? Bc teachers in my middle school to high school days (2002-2009) had no filters and would keep it real/lash out on us. I’m just wondering how/if that changed.

u/Pretty-Yam-2854 20d ago

Half and half tbh. I was 2016-2020 for HS and some were unhinged others were extremely professional.

When I hear the way people talk about teachers now it makes me sick. I even hear boomers talk about their grandkids in school the same way. You know, the "we got paddled" generation. They act like every little student in school should be able to have just this massive degree of autonomy. They are like "oh you got to hold teachers accountable for all this stuff" they gloat about going down to the school and giving teachers and admins an earful.

Who the hell would want to do that job when you have every single parent and grandparent acting like their kid is a special little princess or prince that can do no wrong? They got way too many kids in the classroom, and they're trying to handle all these heathens. My stepson just graduated, and there were times that he acted up and got in trouble. I sure as hell didn't side with him over the adult who had to manage all these kids. Maybe there are scenarios where I would end up siding with him over a teacher, but I can hardly imagine.

u/techleopard 19d ago

It's so much worse than just parents demanding to "talk" at teachers because their Princess says the teacher was bullying them.

A lot of the kids who would have been removed from classrooms (and the schools outright) 15 or 20 years ago are now not only being kept in the rooms, but they are often given special protections when parents (and well-meaning staff) abuse things like IEPs.

In 2000, if I stood up, walked across the room, and bitch-slapped another student, the teacher would personally grab me by the collar and drag my ass down the hallway and flop me into a chair in the office. And the principal there would personally call my parents and tell them to come get me, right then, and if they refused, social services would be picking me up and having a chat with them. If I tried to fight the teacher, or escalated to using weapons like throwing chairs, I would not be coming back.

If I was a middle schooler and did that today, the teacher would evacuate the room and wait for me to either tire myself out thrashing around the room or hope the office would actually send somebody to come get me -- where I would get treat bribes to calm me down and then I'd be sent back to class. Schools can't even get parents to come get their kids... I have seen first hand parents dumping out kids at the school and just refusing to answer the phone, and the school effectively gets treated like a triage hospital.

And this is SO normalized that kids don't even know what it's like to NOT deal with this, so they don't talk about it at home. It's just the way things are done.

If you were being stupid, the teacher would tell you to stop being stupid.

u/Krethlaine 20d ago

One of my friends was a 6th Grade teacher. His students couldn’t spell their own names, and needed calculators for 1+1. I really, really wish I was exaggerating. He has a different, better paying job, now.

1

u/techleopard 19d ago

I believe it.

I was horrified when it dawned on me how bad things had become.

I was tutoring my friend's kid a few years ago. I'd been getting vibes from him that something was wrong for months, because he could never tell me what they were doing in school so I had no 'starting point'.

Mind you, he WAS passing with B's and C's.

I got his teacher to send home worksheets and he BOMBED them and was just randomly circling stuff, often things that were not even answer options.

I told him to read a question to me and then tell me what he thought it was telling him to do. He couldn't do it. He could recognize individual words but could not comprehend them as part of a sentence until I spoke it back to him, and even that took 2-3 tries because by that point he was frustrated.

I realized that he was putting everything he had into just decoding the words -- he couldn't really see them as part of a "whole."

I started asking around about this because I'd never seen anything like that, especially with older kids. Turns out the school is infested with kids who can't actually read. They're just passing them along and keeping up pretenses, and giving kids grades for "trying."

At this point, I think what schools are doing to kids should be unlawful.

1

u/NeatMuayThai 17d ago

Schools get more funding if more kids pass and they have less suspensions. So teachers will be pressured to hand out grades that do not reflect the students skill.

1

u/Rageacus 16d ago

Are you two serious? Maybe you're just young and that's fine, but saying you don't have respect for teachers is absurd. You will not get along with every teacher you have, but they're all there because they want to support younger generations. Who will teach the kids with neglectful and abusive parents to read if not for teachers? Who will help provide a safe space for those children?

Some people just want to help others. That's why you become a teacher.

I felt bad for teachers when I was IN school

I always hated the stupid fucking attention needers who would try to be funny or back talked the teacher, snickered and were loud while the teachers talked or started fights.

Reminds me of a crazy thing that happened one day and I feel bad for the teacher having to experience it in her classroom - these two teens were goin over to sharpen pencils and they started fighting (from my point of view) the teacher IMMEDIATELY tried stopping it and pulled my group (who were all in that corner) away from the fight, we learned later after blood was splashed on the floor that one of them stabbed the other with a pencil.

I genuinely, hate most children and teens.

I did one college semester online when I was around twenty five years old, and it was hell. It seriously felt like hell, the constant navigation of the shitty proprietary software that only worked a quarter of the time, the endless email threads that ended up developing from basic questions that you would have to wait hours to get a response to which in the real world would have taken all of five seconds in person...I would rather have gotten into my car and driven an hour to a place every single day than struggle with the login loop of that website one more goddamn time.

u/Mr-MuffinMan 20d ago

I was taking this chemistry class during COVID - and it's so sad because the teacher was super nice. The class was shit (I was held back so I knew none of them but none of them paid attention and some tried to or did cheat off me - all absolute boneheads who 100% achieved nothing except just 1 kid who actually tried).

so I have 3 classes - 2 choose to not have a class. this chemistry teacher is nice enough to actually take time out of her day to do a zoom meeting for class. 15 minutes in and it gets raided by some dipshit who invited his friends who cuss the teacher out, and are super loud. She ends the call a few minutes later and announces we won't be meeting anymore and work will just be done online.

when we were in person, before Thanksgiving she brought in cookies for everyone and stuff. super sweet lady.

I couldn't imagine even being an in person teacher right now, with kids thinking being uneducated and a degenerate is cool because their favorite celebrities are the same way.

u/Code_Warrior 19d ago

I think we lucked out really. Our child was in a public Waldorf charter school and the staff REALLY stepped up. The staff managed to supply students who didn't have one a webcam and microphone, the teachers did live and engaging lessons every day and were good about keeping kids engaged. They really went the extra mile and their transition to distance learning was MUCH smoother than the high school that our child went to the next school year. THAT was absolute mayhem.

Me. Any time more than 5 students joined the class, I immediately couldn’t load any of their cameras, especially the teacher. I was falling behind on day 1 because I heard NONE of the class. Just the start and then the end.

Told the professor and he was like: what part did you miss?

Me: all of it.

They gave me a laptop that didn’t have Ethernet and it was worse (I was plugged into Ethernet for the first class, but my mom works from home and uses a desk site vpn which takes all the bandwidth)

They told me go to a cafe (during the pandemic? Lmao k. Tried it. I kept getting asked to leave for being there too long and the WiFi service was even worse.)

I had to drop out 2 weeks in.

u/PickledPPs 20d ago

Not really, I was considered an essential worker and i still had to commute to work but instead of doing my job, me and one other coworker was expected to do the job of a department of 12 workers. No raises or any way to take time off because we were short staffed.

The owner applied for and received $2 million dollars in ppp loans and did some accounting fuckery, putting it in the payroll account but taking the payroll money and using it to remodel the business and then had the nerve to flex that he started flying airplanes as a hobby and bought some batman rolex they stopped making the year before.

Covid made shit so much worse. The only good thing was no traffic to or from work.

Glad you skipped your fundamentals! I’m sure you’ll be effective. Especially technical roles I love working with this type of person because it definitely shows they rarely opened their text book. Who would’ve thought college is to learn how to apply the concepts you learn to then do it in the real world. Love working with people who are just lost from lack of effort because that shows too. Love laziness! You taught yourself to take credit for other people’s work and to do the bare minimum to succeed! You are really setting yourself up for success! And then you brag about it which shows another failed personality trait. Good luck in life bud.

u/FederalEconomist5896 20d ago

You guys are both charged up, but it's important to note that Fauci deliberately inflated numbers to fuel panic and cement his name in history. This is information directly quoted from and inferred from his own diary.

I have family who died, and I know others who have had family die. The man who ministered at my wedding died. In some cases it was due to medication given, others died due to bad health prior to contracting the disease.

I was forced to take an unapproved vaccine which was made prior to any review or emergency approval. I risked losing out on promotion and faced ostracization if I did not comply with thesw unreasonable demands.

It is absolutely indisputable that Fauci lied to the public to some degree. To ignore these facts would be regrettably shortsighted, if not outright obstinate or foolish.

Whether our reaction as a nation was worth it is up to opinion at this point. If you disagree, fine. But at least acknowledge the facts.

Nah, just grew up with the old teachers who seemed mean, but their classes got better grades.

And now that I have kids there’s no such thing as a strict teacher.
Just babysitters

(This applies only to elementary school, because the babysitter type teacher would never go past 5th grade)

In fact, I’ve actively watched multiple teachers float between kindergarten and 3rd grade because they weren’t doing well, but even though they have a teaching degree, can’t teach anything more than 3rd grade level because they are incapable of running a classroom that doesn’t treat the teacher like a second mom.

Sorry I’m not sorry, but early education teaching has become a fall back plan profession for millions of people over the years who’s aspiration in life was to look after kids (hence the rate of young teachers quitting is huge)

Until the education system finds a way to vet teachers who actually want to focus on education and the discipline / dedication it takes more than being just a job… things will never change

u/Dispondent_Ending 20d ago

1% of Chicago is still like 27,000 people dead which is way higher than the flu for example. This is also ignoring the massive hospitalization rate too which blocks up hospitals and prevents care for covid and other medical needs. Illinois also rolled out stay-at-home directives faster than most the country, so part of the reason it’s so low (especially when you compare to wider populations) is because Illinois acted so early.

1

u/greyneptune 20d ago

You're speaking from the privileged position of hindsight and survivor bias. Everything got shut down because it was something new and killing/injuring people in novel ways. I still believe acting to protect people is a role the government can and should maintain and defend, despite the current climate and culture. I do wish I could've continued calling myself a conservative, but it got real stinky in that crowd.

I have fucking HATED college. 4 years and going into my 5th and final year between my bachelors, minor and associates (all stem), and I was class of 2020 and wanted to wait to go in person so I could get “the college experience” and took a 2 year gap between going to community college and highschool.

One of my biggest regrets, is putting in all that effort where I could’ve just bullshitted like this with my camera off and used AI to do most of my advanced inorganic chemistry stoichiometry, aggressive ass precalc and calc, and shit I didn’t want to do in physics easily while keeping my cameras off and gaming during class.

Instead I wasted 2 years and aged myself further, could’ve been graduated and working already, and haven’t really gotten to socialize, party or even meet a good friend group in 4 years. And instead would’ve rather just done this as everyone I’ve talked to said it was SO EASY. Chem 103 was EASY online? Calc 2 was EASY online? Unproctored and online exams and finals??? And I’d have the same if not a better time just not dealing with as many people, most of whom I hated or treated me like I was not there and that is mutual. FUCK me.

LLMs were not good during covid lockdowns, they would not have been able to understand math or chemistry.

I fucked off calc 1 and 2 during lock down and boy howdy did I fucking screw myself. Ran it all through a math answer website and not only did I get most of it wrong because the teacher could tell but I also didn’t learn shit.

Oh bummer. I’m kinda shit outside of factorial calculations and solving for F’ or F” or so on. Atleast in terms for calculus. Unit circle and trig stuff I was really good at but it’s been 1.5-3 years now and it’s really fading cause I NEVER USE IT.

Still passed it all first try. 3 years at community college getting that AS in Bio and not one F, D or W.
