Things that give you the sh1ts

[blink]

The training to become a PE teacher has improved so much in recent years. You have to do PE as at least a sub-major now, which relates to about 8 different PE courses throughout your 4 years at uni.

There is generation of school teachers in this state (around the 40 y.o. mark) that are all the same. They have never left school. They grow up at school, go to uni (bludge) for four years, then straight back to school again.

Then they "teach" at schools where they spend more time on strike, or on stress leave. Whinge and complain that they are over worked, yet they only work 6 hour days, 5 days a week, and get 12 weeks off a year.

The best teachers I ever had at school were the more older ones and the younger ones, who had only been teaching 2 or 3 years.

You blokes are kidding aren't you? Teachers get paid jack shit and they have one of the most important jobs in society, educating the next generation. If you think teaching is such a scam, why not get that bludgy degree and then attempt to educate a generation more in touch with their rights than their responsibilites?

If you can do it on the bit then tell me what school you are at and I'll send my kids there.

Think in SOME cases the teaching fraternity contribute to the problem you've just mentioned REB

That's true permstance, I wasn't saying that all teachers were winners, just that it all looks easy from the commentary box.

Correct.
My old man has been a teacher/deputy principal since I was born.

Fair call mate ... I think it's like any profession, you take the good with the bad ...

For everyone who says teachers are underpaid/overpaid, does anyone actually know what teachers get? Im sure Zippy would have some idea, but its still lower than anywhere else in the country, and quite small compared to overseas.

Christ.
I'd prefer Nicole Haack and that's saying something.

I agree that teachers are underpaid - as usual you get what you pay for, dont get my wrong there are some good ones out there but some that have no concept of the real business world at all because they never left school!!!!

why would I go get a degree to become a teacher when I can get paid more without one?

[Dutchy]

What would shit me is havng 12 weeks off each year and everywhere you go there are kids on holidays!!!!

12 weeks sounds good, but unless you have a full time job, thats 12 weeks each year you dont get paid a cent.

purchasers that cool off! Especially when you meet them in the office on a sunday, do the contract & then they cool off 2 hours later.

Definitely Blair for mine.
Another one of these bloody people who says that any form of constructive criticism against any people who are not anglo-saxon is "being racist".
