I'm simply intelligent enough to understand…

I don’t accept your premise. Overestimation casn be a dangerous thing you know!

an "exaggerative whine"

Do you or do you not think that the statement standing 6 hours a day was an exaggeration or not? What objective evidence do you have to counter someone who actaully worked in the job?

..ill-considered claim earlier in this thread s thread.

What specifically was ill-considered? Why don’t you show all of us how bright you are by specifically refuting what I said and demonstrating how it was ill-considered?

Do they? I'm quite familiar with people in many professions, and I've never been able to discern a difference in the amount of complaints.

Right. You have demsontrated beyond question your experience and analytic skills. Excuse me for ever wondering if your unsupported assertions about yourself might be a tad biased.

…You make an assertion. The assertion is refuted. You claim the refutation is "whining".

The refutation was innacurate and exaggerative whine, as is obvious not only to someone who has actually worked in the profession.

…I take it you must have had a rough time in school and that experience has carried over into your adult life

Your assumption is not only incorrect but a sophomoric attempt at changing the subject at hand.

He has the objective evidence of someone who is still working in the job, unlike the opinion of someone who obviously couldn't hack it. Maybe the reason the kids weren't learning in your class was that you were sitting down behind your desk all the time instead of being up teaching, moving around, and helping the kids out...?

You post a mixture of insults and unfounded assertions, and expect me to respond as though you're making a valid argument? Don't be absurd.

Incidentally, I hope you weren't an English teacher...yikes.
