Comment on School pickup lines are wild
Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 22 hours agoAh yes my dude. Your anecdotes totally change the facts that teachers do tons of unpaid work, by classroom supplies themselves to give kids a better education, and constantly are in fights to stop their schools from adding new ridiculous policies.

I had a friend who tried sticking up for his students when the school’s Zero Tolerance Drug Policy™ meant that they couldn’t carry epipens around them. The Principal’s defense when he was told he was he was going to get sued for a wrongful death was “I’ve been sued before”. My friend was let go the following year and didn’t have the energy to sue.
Considering the overall state of the US, I don’t think my anecdotes are exactly exceptions. Everything I’ve feared would happen is happening.

You are literally now listing an example of a teacher sticking their neck out for their students yet still running with this notion that they aren’t passionate and don’t care

They aren’t a teacher anymore. The system crushed him and he left.
