Kid Airbag Posted April 27, 2002 It seems the Germany shooting was directed more at authority figures than Columbine was. 0 Share this post Link to post

nxn Posted April 27, 2002 regardless, a death is a death and 17 people should not pay the ultimate price because of one stupid fuckhead that has no controll over himself. 0 Share this post Link to post

There have been about 30 student teachers at my school over the past few months...and my school isn't even considered a "teaching school." Most of the student teachers go to other schools, so it seems there is an unsual overflow of them around here... 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted April 27, 2002 Odd...I heard that from the combination of the baby boomers retireing and the fact that there is nearly no one training to become a teacher, that there will be a definate shortage within the next 10 years. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kid Airbag Posted April 27, 2002 Oh, well maybe in the next ten years, but right now there seems to be an odd overabundance, at least in my area. 0 Share this post Link to post

I'd also like to mention we should not worry about those dumb terrorists that much.They want us to be angry.We aren't going to do what they want us to do, are we? Edit: Also, if we didn't have teachers, what would we learn?Our parents can't teach us anthing they don't know. 0 Share this post Link to post

Couldn't have said it better myself. I saw the news report on almost every channel.. the word 'Terrorist' was only used when the reporter(s) said something similar to: "This may not have to do with terrorists due to a distress signal..." and so on. Edit: Also I heard something about the plane being a personal plane... or something.. hope that helped. 0 Share this post Link to post

Especially college professors, they get paid a decent amount of money, and even some high school teachers get 70-80k per year. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted April 27, 2002 well I meant high school, or middle school. They go through shit every day, scream at the top of their voices, still have kids hate them even more, and bearly get paid for all that stress. That's how it is here, and it's only getting worse. 0 Share this post Link to post

Sharessa Posted April 27, 2002 I WOULD become a teacher, but I'd always be cussing and mocking the students. I'd lose my job in a week. 0 Share this post Link to post

You've obviously never met my high school physics teacher. The man wouldn't stop cussing or mocking students long enough to teach, yet he'd been there forever. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted April 27, 2002 I have a theary that teachers that curse and mock are the funnest, and the funnest teachers are the ones that teach the best. Therefore cursing teaches kids well!! 0 Share this post Link to post

nxn Posted April 28, 2002 well, I had 3 honor classes so far and all of them had 30+ kids in them, among those 30 kids only 2 are into the shit I am. The rest are straight edge, and I lost the capability to communicate with them. Besides that, only 2 hot chicks, and they're too stuck up to be worth the trouble to even talk to. 0 Share this post Link to post

I don't want to get into the drug thing again, but when you say "into the shit I am" does that mean they're not into drugs? 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted April 28, 2002 no, it means they're INTO drugs. Any body that says drugs make you dumb is an idiot himself. My friend is a bigger pot head than me and he's basicly the smartest person in that class. 0 Share this post Link to post
