Those blessed few months teachers don't complain about their jobs!
Basically this is wbt's announcement that he'll be spending most of his summer checking out the tweens at Schlitterbahn and Splashway...wbt5845 said:

We are only a couple of months away from wbt's annual thread complaining about teachers complaining about having to go back to schoolCromagnum said:
They are already griping about going back to work this fall.

only applies to the crap teachers.. for 2 reasons:
1)the good ones dont complain about it. they know what comes with it and they enjoy it
2) the smart ones arent done because they teach easy summer school @ 30 bucks an hour

I used to love joining in the "gripe about teachers griping" threads, that is until my wife decided to leave industry and become a teacher. Over the last 3 years if I have learned anything it is that teachers are likely underpaid. Certainly those that sponsor extracurricular activities. The $125 each semester stipend they get for the after school hours and weekends is a joke.
I could not hold a position where I am 1) constantly presenting new material to kids who don't care or are always undermining you 2)work for an administration that expects you to do everything you can to get a kid passing 2 days before the end of a 6 weeks or semester 3) where your salary doesn't reflect time commitment of the role.
this is all 100% true. but it wont stop the people who make the jokes.Ragoo said:

It's been so long, can someone remind me why AiT garnered the tween perv rep. I know we're reaching way back in the GB days.
Didn't he also say it was ok for him to bang outside of wedlock but he expected his wife to be a virgin or some **** like that? Or am I confusing him with another ****ed up poster?Beer Baron said:
Yall really are being unfair to the OP here. He's explained numerous times that his urges for children are ok because the children in question are exclusively female.

I think it has something to do with being a perv who has a preference for tweens

One of those TA things I will never understand I guess. I am not a white knight for teachers but holy **** do their jobs suck butt. I will always appreciate the job teachers do. Part of it may be this weird stigma Texas has about education. I love my state to death but even I can admit our academic environment is the pits.ClickClack said:Ragoo said:

This. The teacher-bashing on this board is just weird.

I have known several (A few romantically) and have 3 aunts and an uncle who are all retired teachers. The amount of time, effort, and yes even money out of pocket would shatter the minds and worldviews of most posters here. Especially the lower the grade you go.

He rammed his rod all through college and excused it as okay, but demanded his wife be a virgin or else she was a whoooar.

That's a little off focus. My exact point was once a girl I was dating gave it up, she was off the potential wife list. Girls need to realize not to give it up so easy.

Have any teachers just said, "nope. Not spending my money."
When I think back on HS, the three most effective teachers I had and the ones that actually prepared me for college had ZERO on the walls. The only thing provided in their classrooms was Kleenex.
