I’m kind of stuck what to do. The principal at my school is very intimidating, confrontational, and not pleasant to work for. I love teaching but feel like I have to walk on egg shells around him.

I know people who have been in situations like this, and once they left they were much happier. I would stick out the year but update your resumé and start looking for another job. You’ll be happier in the long run working for someone you can openly talk to m.

I only had so much space to type so I am going to finish here. This is a great school and my kids all go here at a discount because I work there. However, I don’t know how much more of this jerk I can take. I can’t afford this school without discount. What to do?

I feel you. We had one that was infamous. People started quitting when they heard ahe was coming. Teachers cried and even the secretary quit the first. Subs didn't like her and prospective teachers tried to sneak out of the school without saying good bye.

See your Union rep for advice.

Private school

Seek Union help.

Try to switch to public school for yourself and your family.

As a salesperson I generally take the approach of keeping my opinions to myself, if a customer asks me something directly I'm not going to lie to them I'll share what I believe in a respectful way. In other words I don't try to force my views on anyone, but lately our world seems to be more and more polarized on everything, and everyone is offered just by knowing you don't share the same views as they do they can't imagine their opinion isn't the only one. How are you handling these situations?

I was on the course with my mentor this week for a business related event. All the men continually thought we were the cart girls and asked us to fetch them things despite being in a regular golf cart and wearing our (not beverage or course) company polos.
