I’m having a bad day I took a personal day because last week haven’t been feeling the best and then all my coworkers where talking bad to about me when I was wasn’t there I only found out because my teacher texted me asking why I lied to her. It’s own of your business why I took off

Don't they use theirs? They forfeit a bargained piece of their contracts? Something to get curious about. Lean into it, gloriously own your self care mental health day. Everybody needs mental health days!

Sounds like some of your colleagues might be a little envious that you actually used a personal day off and took care of yourself and for whatever reason they do not feel they can to. The funny thing is that they can!

Personal days are yours to use. Use them how you see fit.

Sorry for those who bad mouth. What is it they gain?

Hope you feel better.

I used a personal day on Monday because I needed it. Many people think “oh, MUST BE NICE.” but that is simply their unmet need of rest speaking out. It IS nice to take a day off when you need it 😂 not only is it nice but it is imperative to our own health and wellness.

I’m sorry to hear that.

Sorry you are going through this.

There will always be those who are going to be a “Negative Nancy”. It’s hard, but try to ignore them.

I’m taking a personal day this week, for the first time in 4 years. And that’s insane. They’re ours to use, contracted, and it’s no ones business but yours what the reason for it is.

I’m sorry . I hope you’re feeling better.

Honestly, I will “gladly” take on another’s burden if they will take on mine when I need the day.

Personal days are just that - personal. It's no one's business but yours what you use them for. I don't usually use up my personal days, but I am scheduled for a day off next Friday. With the kids I have this year, knowing that day is coming up is helping me get through the time in between!

Hey you, weary teacher, I see you.
I hear you sigh,
eyes closed,
Head in your hands...

I know the things you think,
the doubts,
fears,
the frustrated pain...

I know you are trying.
I know you work hard.
Sometimes it seems like you’re the only one
in the whole damn school who cares...

I know.
I see.
I hear.
I care.

You are the difference.
You are power.
Through you flows the future.
You author the stories of the world.

I care about the tale you are creating.
Please keep writing. Please.

Subs! Internal subbing is draining the life out of teachers. The sub schedule comes out at the last minute bc of so many teacher absences. It’s the split classes in one period (1/2 Gen Ed and a Special Ed class) Teachers on a cart. Subs pick up students and deliver students. Class changeovers take 10 minutes bc of the domino effect. We’re all waiting for next sub. Teachers are late for their own classes. Students are in chaos with rotating subs. We pay $100 a day. Is the Solution in plain sight?

It’s stressful at quarter changeovers.
In going back after break, it’s too much of a contrast. I cannot sleep, I wake up in the middle of the night, “for the day”, about 6 nights a week. To stay structured, I go to “Surrender yoga” daily. I’m good to go do 1 more thing after yoga. I feel accomplished. Couching causes anxiety.
