It is so uncool from stopping teachers to be cool.
For the longest time ever, there haven't been any model for a modern teacher. Whenever we hear the word "teacher", what we see is the figure of a spinster with her hair in a bun, wearing half-moon spectacles, and that smug and uppity posture that surely irritates me.
No wonder students viewed teachers and the time spent on school as S-even C-rappy H-ours O-f O-ur L-ives. S.C.H.O.O.L.
Don't worry, kids, the feeling is mutual.
Who wants to spend time standing in front of 50+ students who are not listening to you?
Who wants to spend time checking test papers?
Who wants to spend time crafting lesson plans?
Who wants to spend time dealing with parents who do care about grades but do not care about how much their child has learned and then shout at the teacher?
Who wants to spend time dealing with the principal?
Who wants to spend their entire f****** lifetime thinking of other people? In this case, kids?
Unfortunately, that's my job.
You see, kids, I want you to imagine that 8 hours we spend on teaching. I could have written a book or read a whole book with that time, f***, I could have even taught my own brother!
So, do not go on strutting your asses on our noses telling us that school sucks, because well, you don't need to tell us that, because you see, you came in school and suddenly school sucked.
But what I hate so much is stopping us from rocking the roll...
I have a colleague, who with other colleagues, have been asked to perform in front of the students. Sure, that colleague of mine rocked the house singing in the tune of songs the kids adored. But to our dismay, days after the performance, one of our older colleagues said that yes, some might have appreciated his performance, but some might not. And you see, there is no particular reason for that depreciation.
Were they scandalized? It's not like my colleague did a strip show.
Are they worried that the reputation of my colleague might have gotten down? I don't think so, kids are always proud of a teacher who literally rocks their world.
It's the stuff of their wet dreams, actually.
If these other colleagues of ours are so bent on protecting our reputation, it's actually surprising that they hired us in the first place. No. Scratch that. If they are so bent on protecting the kids from teachers who rock, it's actually surprising that they built a school in the first place.
*sigh*
Stopping the teachers from being cool is so uncool. Remember that.
