I had zero desire to do it, and I despised doing it. <BR/><BR/>Why am I telling you this?<BR/><BR/>Because I made a pact with myself that if I ever felt a severe disdain or dislike for my job, if I was afraid or in some kind of danger from my job, or if I simply do NOT want to go to my job under any circumstances, that I would sit down with myself and make a decision for my mental, physical, and emotional health.<BR/><BR/>Don't ever let it get to the point where you feel hopeless or stranded.<BR/><BR/>HugsThe Bus Driverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04259280794473075615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3826989222677624700.post-14672880868246006182008-10-17T17:10:00.000-04:002008-10-17T17:10:00.000-04:00Our hopes are the same. :)Teacherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11612193022815421409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3826989222677624700.post-26130145383202490712008-10-16T20:40:00.000-04:002008-10-16T20:40:00.000-04:00It's sort of comforting to think there is a place out there where schools make sense. Having taught in South America and New York City only, I have no sense of what that is like. I think I am just as disturbed as you are, though, but the weight of teaching in a dysfunctional system. I always see these veteran teachers here who seem to have accepted all of the injustice and chaos. I really hope that I never accept it.peace in the classroomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08589221180179106346noreply@blogger.com
