It’s just their nature to control everyone around them while insisting upon adherence to “rules” with no rational basis in thought.

There are some rules Nazis out there. Some of my students would call me one on occasion. We have a saying in education. “Pick your battles”. For every rule I enforce I let two or three slide with just a small comment. Teachers that try to enforce every rule all the time don’t make it past two or three years.

Of course you are entitled to your opinion, as I am mine. I find my opinion proved out every single day, unfortunately.

Me too. I find people to be more rude, entitlement driven, and narcissistic everyday. Our next generation is going to get a nasty wakeup call when they start reporting for work. If they can find a job these days. I hope there is no ill will.

No ill will on my part whatsoever from you! I can’t say the same for another un-named idiot on this thread, however. I know from personal experience that there are many really GOOD teachers out there. I’ve bowed in their presence. I also know quite well that “bad” teachers are NOT removed from their pedestals of self importance almost EVER. They continue on inflicting their puffed up sense of power entitlement on decades of students. There is a reason that the educational establishment has gone into the toilet and it starts precisely with the quality of the “elites” in charge. I call it gestapo tactics...you may prefer some other nomenclature, but most people know exactly what I’m speaking about if they have had children in any of these hellholes in any recent years.
