I have heard colleagues complain about their frustration in not being able to do their job as well as they would like, due to workloads. I've never heard a colleague say that people in other occupations don't work hard or don't have big workloads.

4. Wonder if there are many other jobs where everyone seems to think they are an expert on how it all works just because they went to school or have kids who go to school.

Do you actually know what happens on a student free day? Obviously not

1. Parents everywhere scramble for days off or child care positions.

2. Teachers do a course that could have been done in the last or next school holidays.

I've never been in a school that doesn't have an Out of School Hours Care facility, and these are always available on these days, so #1 isn't a valid argument

Ever tried booking a spot in one? We've missed out on numerous occasions, not worth a bumper on these days.

Most teachers I know would rather get rid of the bureaucrats in administration and thus most of the form-filling they have to do...

Yes, and it's usually the expensive restaurants - shit people, we're paying top dollar here - and we have to shell our own bloody prawns?

Yep. I pay enough to have them removed before they are on my plate.

I thought it was so the prawn meat stayed moist and tender. But hey, what do I know. It's not like I haven't watched every rick Stein show ever made.
