Re: Moving to Ocala, Florida??
Ahhhhh, I should have known, a teacher! The some of the most self righteous group of people out there!
A few years ago when I completed my Masters in Educational Technology I transitioned from business to teaching. It was my dream job. What a miserable bunch of people some of them are!!!!
I stayed til 5pm every day - well past the other teachers who ran for the door as soon as the bell rang, only too listen to them complain each day at the lunch table about how late they stayed up grading papers - not exactly rocket science grading the same material you been teaching for 20 years. I taught ICT/Technology and because it is not seen as a real subject I was given no materials and had to create thing from scratch for the whole course. I loved and couldn't believe that anyone could possibly complain about this profession.
I am not in any way insulting teachers, most teachers are wonderful people that you just want to hug every time you see them...I am just a firm believer that everyone that teaches that complains about it should have to work in industry for a year or two before they head to teaching so they can see how good they have it!
