There are only a few things that annoy me as a substitute.
Here are five of them!
When I hear the same crappy trap music beats a hundred times a day coming from someone's
headphones
I get bitches. I get money. I get bitches 'cause I get money.
I get bitches 'cause I get money 'cause I sell drugs to other bitches.
It's just stupid stuff like that! Why are kids today more interested in being
trap kings/queens than being catalysts of social change?
Asinine music Drugs, hoes, and gangs: meaningless
Idols lead astray
When I spend the first five minutes of class introducing myself, explaining the assignment,
answering any questions about the assignment, and that one kid still asks, “What are we
supposed to be doing?”
It's fascinating that a kid can spend 84 minutes during class playing a game on his smart phone.
But when he's asked to give 5 minutes of attention at the beginning of class, he loses all focus!
Look, listen, observe... It is only your blunder
When you are adrift.
When a student refuses to start an assignment and says, "I'll do it in the last 10 minutes.
I always do!"
No, you won't!
I knew a guy once named Darko and he taught me what it means when you lie. He said, “If
you lie to me, one of two things must be true: either you think I'm stupid, or, you're an
asshole.”
So, which is it?
You wait and you wait. Goofing off and twiddling thumbs...
When you work, you eat.
When I have to use referral slips (or threats of them) to deal with behavior.
It's sad that some kids are more conditioned to FEAR a piece of paper than to RESPECT the
reasonable requests from adults.
That's all I can say about that...
In school: detention. In the real world: Imprisoned.
You choose your own fate.
When a student pretends like it hurts my life if he/she refuses to do an assignment.
I did 16 years of school.
What hurts me is seeing taxpayer money being dumped into a government system that's full
of kids that aren't taught the value of education because they're too busy getting beat down
by pointless assignments and big test preparation.
And to this, I say:
School for me is done. Learning is for a lifetime...
Your life begins now.
