I know what you mean bev By Laura

Bev,I do think I understand what you are trying to say. I don't eat with my fellow teachers in the lunch room. When you have a respected position, you need to earn that respect. ( I don't buy the attitude of hey, priests | molest children and our former president had oral sex in his office as an excuse to behave unprofessionally.) Venting about the difficulties of the job is one thing and I certainly do that. However, the teachers in my building made fun of children, made racist remarks, belittled new teachers, and expressed their hate for children on a daily basis. Two were very honest in their reason | | for taking the job, to have summer's off. If you don't like what's going on, form a new lunch group that meets in your classroom with other teachers. I did that and it worked out great. We talked about problems and how to solve them. Teachers are human, some are horrid and some good.
