Anyone else at their breaking point?
I’m tired! My blood pressure is at an all time high. I am stressed beyond belief! I have grown to utterly despise this job. It has become so toxic and unbearable. My nervous system cannot take it anymore.
Why should I have to repeat myself a million times for students who are glued to their phones? You call parents and tell them what’s happening, yet nothing changes. There is no real system in place to hold students accountable.
Students have figured out they will just move on to the next grade/level, whether they did the work or not.They’ll just be given a 50, or go to credit rescue/summer school and get the credit. It’s a COMPLETE JOKE at this point.
To top it all off, I no longer have the mental bandwidth to support 25+ students in one class. We all know it’s a terrible idea, but apparently it will only continue to get worse, and I’m not trying to end up in a mental facility.
There is absolutely no way in hell I will be coming back to this nightmare after this semester ends!
