And this reason #1001, why I left teaching. Damn, I miss it though. 🫤

In preparing for a career in education you learn that we are serving the "stakeholders", who's taxes and whatnot support our town. When you actually get into education though, you begin to realize that you were hired to be the thing they blame when "the kids ain't right". You can't blame the kids; they're kids. You can't blame the parents; they bitch, blame, and vote along the rest of our lauded stakeholders. When it comes down to it, the "stakeholder" is really just your random fuckwits who think their day would be that much better by shitting on your job.
