i've had four friends move to CO in the last year. Another two are going soon and bugging me to move with them.
I just had two friends of mine move from Colorado to here.
Also, just typing away at work, where I have to love everything about it because I haven't spent enough time here to dislike anything.
You've been there for a week or two and are working in the profession you want to and all you've done is *** since you got there lol... it's not just one or two things and it's not like it's not core to the job itself.
If you're already disliking it this much time to get into a new profession or a new school...
Edit: You even seemed to whine about your principle putting effort into making the school a better place for the kids cuz "they don't show up anyways"
1. I've been here for two months.
2. I wasn't complaining about my principal's go get 'em attitude; in fact I think it's a breath of fresh air. What I was complaining about was that it was interfering with my ability to go home and watch tv in my underwear.
3. There are points of my job which I do enjoy. This being said, I was handed the short stick here, and everyone agrees here on campus. I don't care how hard hearted you are, when you have a class full of students who blatantly disrespect you, each other, the classroom and everything in between, even the strongest person can falter.
1. when did school start?
2. so that gung ho attitude you had about children are the future and how great you were going to be in educating them and making it a better place for them has been trumped by your desire to go plop down on the couch?
3. Boohoo. Everyone gets the short straw at one oint or the other. I guess you can whine to the other faculty about that and have them cup your balls so you feel better. People's true character show when they deal with the toughest situations...
You don't have to be hard hearted not to falter in that situation. It's pretty easy not to let kids opinions or actions affect you.
The reason most of this bothers me so much is you're shaping up to look like the typical give up teacher... blame it on the students and complain to everyone else how hard it is without seeming to do much to change things.
granted I'm working off a very limited amount of information atm but this is how you come off to me every time you post about your job now.
because heaven forbid complaining about other people or things that causes stress at work to vent out.
heaven forbid indeed... You think I'm over reacting? I probably am!
To me he's complaining about the core portion of his job in which he chose to directly pursue not about that *** sandy who ate his sandwich or how that other teacher tried to show him up in a battle to the death english forum!
For quite awhile Mag has posted about his ideals and how he wished to contribute to the profession and how teachers are so very important to the students and he's already contradicting those ideals in practice... boss makes you stay late for the people you say you want to help improve their lives and all you do is *** about it cuz you can't go eat chips and watch hoarders while you plop your fatass down on the couch...
Idk I tend to think that venting about work is pretty normal, & here is a good place to do it, because no one really cares. I don't vent about work @ work, because I think that's a shitty thing to do to your co-workers.
you two are funny.
either *** or fight already, gaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwddddd.
You're absolutely right. I don't know what has me so angry and jaded but I seriously have been in a dark place about my job and everything about it, especially after I was so gung ho about changing lives. It's wearing me down emotionally, I can just feel it. But you're right; this is what I got into the profession for. I need to stop complaining about wanting how it was and do something about these kids now. ***, this is tough.
if you need to vent out Mag go ahead.
from people i know who work at a school, I know being in the educational system is tough and can take a toll on one, and typing things like this can help out clear your head too.

There's a difference betweeen venting and fundamentally giving up on your ideals... you guys like to coddle each other too much... Venting is all fine and good and I'm sure we've all done it before but sometimes you guys just gotta *** slap someone... To me this isn't venting... This is mag walking down a soul crushing path and him just letting it happen. Do I sound like a *** in reply? Most likely.
In the end even he can face the fact that it isn't solely about venting and I'm not saying you guys shouldn't be there to *** about ***with friends but sometimes its no good to just sit there and tell em everything will be ok and you're doing great buddy even if they aren't. It really isn't always the best thing to do if you're actually trying to help someone.
Not saying I'm trying to help or anything just calling em as I sees em.
I don't think you guys are even listening to what he's saying and rather are just trying to be there for a buddy without actually listening.
Edit: Also, any line of work can be tough. People make it work or they give up and at that point they're more of a hinderance to the system than a help. Rise to the *** occassion and live up to the standards you at least set for yourself.

This. Sometimes it's easier to evaluate and *** problems when you have it in a concise format, and not just a jumble in your skull.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
