^ Same here, only it was my dad
Also worth bearing in mind that despite the 13 weeks holiday teachers have to do a lot of stuff outside the normal working hours - marking, lesson plans, familiarizing themselves with curriculum updates etc...

Most professionals have to do loads of stuff outside of normal working hours and they don't get 2 breaks a day or to finish work at 4:30

Admittedly I have encountered some very overworked teachers
But usually because they're picking up the slack for all their shit lazy colleagues, who are often the ones who go off with 'stress'

My day hardly ever finishes at 4.30
I leave the building by then to beat the worst of the traffic but there is always plenty of work to do.

It's a bit of a shitty bill oreilly trick to call people lazy wankers then wait for them to respond so that you can call them moaning wankers.

I think fox news are recruiting. Fill your boots.

Bill O'Reilly would accuse them of trolling, put them on Ignore 2.0 and report them to the mods.

What is this ignore 2.0 ?
Rob seems to have adjusted things so if we don't want to be quite literally hounded by fuckwits, we aren't. I am lost as to why this a bad plan. What is their loss?
( Jahled Three shades of black, Sat 8 Sep 2012, 0:37, closed)

The problem is that it's a "double-blind" setup.
You can't see them & they can't see you. The problem arises in that then you can't see any sub-threads that they then post in. That can make some threads a bit confusing to read to say the least.

I'm trying a few of the usual annoying bunch on ignore right now - let's see if it makes things a little better.
(Misery McUglywife an attention seeking sociopathic fuckstain., Sat 8 Sep 2012, 0:47, closed)

But the people I have on ignore are on ignore because they are fuckwits
Why would I miss their comments? If they are determined to be wankers then Rob should probably ban them for good
( Jahled Three shades of black, Sat 8 Sep 2012, 1:03, closed)

This is true.
Still you can always logout and log back in if you really want to read their posts.

Why would you go to the effort of logging out just so you can read a post calling you a dull fat spastic?
Because that's what you are, you dull fat spastic. Much better you stay in your little bubble where noone can be mean to you. After all, that's the reason you stopped going outside in the first place isn't it?

And it allows enterprising users to put the mods on ignore and flood the board of their choice with spam and/or scat porn without any fear of consequence.
Not that b3ta admins do anything about spam anyway, having caved into legal threats from a certain boy band.

I don't think it's gonna happen, you'll just have to look elsewhere for you scat porn

You're both a pair of whining spastics old enough to know better.

Quite.
The complaint against the new ignore seems to boil down to "But now it's slightly harder for me to be a pusillanimous arsehole".

Yah boo sucks.

You don't seem to have the faintest idea what you're on about. Do you actually have any first-hand experience of the profession, or do you base all your opinions on furious soundbites from tabloid comics?
( Happy Phantom has been to Hastings, Brighton, and Eastbourne too, Sat 8 Sep 2012, 1:06, closed)

And what is your first hand experience, other than the time you were molested by your PE teacher in year 9?

( 2 Can Chunder Word to your mums, I came to prod bums, Sat 8 Sep 2012, 1:23, closed)

That doesn't really answer the question, does it? Full marks for effort with the PE teacher comment, though - that's some cutting stuff, right there. Go, you.

But to answer your question - I have several teachers in my family, have several schools on my client list, and visit (on average) five or six per week. I'm not a teacher. But I've seen, first hand, the hours they put in, and your cretinous little whine seems to be based upon nothing more than willful ignorance, fantasy, and tabloid nonsense.
