And that is the million dollar zing. Why did they become teachers in the first place? If it was to help children, the STFU and teach the children. If you wanted a steady job with no chance of being fired and no performace evals, than STFU and continue what you are doing.

The vast majority of teachers I have met - I do not care if this offends teachers or those related to teachers - are about as dumb as a bunch of rocks. Also extremely bossy and overbearing. They talk to people as if everyone is a child. And get extremely frustrated and upset if people do not follow their instructions, as they are so use to children having to follow their every command.

Thomas Sowell has a great book - Inside American Education - that I am now reading. Copyrighted in 1993, it is very scathing in the chapters about teachers, educators, and those seeking an education degree.
