Teachers live in such a vacuum
I understand they have a tough job, they don't get paid for shit compared to the importance of their job...but god damn...last night I had to go to my oldest nieces choir concert and a few months back to my youngest nieces orchestra concert and both times...these bitch ass teachers come out and start lecturing the parents on how to behave.
At my youngest nieces middle school they handed out a leaflet that said things like "please only clap when the song is finished.," there was no less than 20 more "rules." like this...simple common sense shit that you would tell 5 year olds at their first concert.
Last night this teacher started to tell us about appropriate audience behaviour saying things like..."If you like a song it is appropriate to clap...It is not appropriate to whistle or yell whoo hoo!."
"If you really like a song it is appropriate to stand up and clap."
I was ready to rip this bitches head off.
Try going and discussing anything with a teacher..#1 they start to talk to you in the most condescending manner until you check their punk ass and tell them like I do..."I am not one of your students and you will treat me with the same respect you expect from me."
I think the sad fact is tho' a lot of teachers are just people who failed at other things...those who can't teach...not all of them..but a lot.
Anyway that's my rant for the night.
