@Miss Sandman: The best time to sleep is when your kid is asleep. I never did chores when they were napping. I also napped.

I'm alright. My patience is wearing thin af though.

Hey, welcome. I got some stuff for you.

@kaichoukai: Student teacher relationship is important. "Kids don't care how much you know until they know how much you care" was my philosophy. I had field experience but I still felt under prepared. However, you're right. The burn out rate in teaching is insane and it's why schools are losing good teachers. If we were respected a bit more by students and parents, plus a bit more supported by admin, it probably would be different.
That brings me to my next question for you: do you feel respected? Not by just students but parents and do you feel adequately supported by administration?

@kaichoukai: I used to be a teacher before I got burned out. I taught Mandarin.

Do you feel like college prepared you well for your job? Because while college taught me how to teach a language, I feel like there was no way I was prepared for real world teaching. The students were unpredictable and I wasn't sure how to handle them very well at first.

@Mellonin: It's okay, you have a right to be, it's personal. I get riled up when people bash teachers because I was one. But, I'm sure many people wouldn't be using them if they knew. I just manually block the calls because I want to handle things myself. I'm a stereotypical man who has to do it his way, even if it's more difficult. xD

@Wildfire: That's what I do too lol.

I don't use a blocking app, just manually block the numbers that I know are scammers.
I reverse search them. Lol.
@KDA Drew: Right, I figured that's probably what happened. Ugh that's frustrating.
@Tsundererra: That's terrible, I'm sorry.
Posted in Scam callers are persistent Posted 5 years ago
@Mellonin: I'm literally just blocking numbers that I know are scam callers because I've answered them. I also don't care about companies enough to not block one that persistently wakes me up. Lmao

Edit: okay out of work, can finish the response

Still, I wouldn't be able to make a person over the phone cry. I can be a jerk but even I have a limit.
Sorry about the shit you've been through with that job.
Posted in Scam callers are persistent Posted 5 years ago
@Wildfire: Mine too, especially where I work overnights and they always seem to call when I'm sleeping.

You can report scam calls if you're on the DNC registry. I take the time to report every new number but it doesn't seem to do much. : /

@buggaboy: Not an otaku (I actually really can't stand anime tbh), however, I'm a heavy gamer. I have two Nendoroids, Majora's Mask Link and Toon Link. I want Red from Pokemon and BOTW Link.
