Bad days.
For some reason yesterday saw a flood of bad boss and crap at work stories.
There was the Met Life Survey of the American Teacher.
Damn. We are an unhappy bunch. And who can blame us?
Well. In fact, it seems everybody blames us.
Not only is there a national campaign of teacher-bashing and teacher-union bashing, there’s the day-to-day stuff

I’m not getting into extraordinary detail here. But, folks. It’s bad out here.More than half of teachers expressed at least some reservation about their jobs, their highest level of dissatisfaction since 1989, the survey found. Also, roughly one in three said they were likely to leave the profession in the next five years, citing concerns over job security, as well as the effects of increased class size and deep cuts to services and programs. Just three years ago, the rate was one in four.
