School with the trio would be the worst. Bad stuff always happening and at the most stressful time of year too. ugh.
Kick those kids out so that I can get on with my magic learning with my magic friends.

@sasha: I hit send before I was done with that message. 
These are full fledged qualified teachers that retire, not paras.

@neko: I'm sure they did that with at least 2, but the one this year was a new hire. They didn't know what to expect with her. XD
@tuijp: ELA,but... that's pretty much the same thing right? They both read books? "Turn to page 394"
@lithium: I wouldn't mind it so much, but it means that I have to change systems every year.
Petty Example time:
This year, my partner demands all papers to be given to her to pass out in alphabetical order whereas the teacher last year didn't care and the teacher before didn't want any papers at all.
Also, I have to learn new discipline and new quirks every year. It's just annoying. I'm really easy going and I'll do whatever they want, but consistency would be nice.

@eruca: I try my best! My students and I have a lot of fun! I make as many things interactive as I can.
There are more people retiring than going into the teaching field, but I don't think our area has struggled to find teachers. Other places have definitely, but I work for a large district that has very competitive pay. I moved 4 hours away for this job and I'm making 15k more than I was previously doing the same work. Schools with less competitive pay do struggle with hiring though.

@eruca: XDD I teach elementary Math and Science and my partner(s) teach Reading, Writing, and Social Studies. We share 2 sets of classes. I have one group in the morning while she has the other and then we swap.

I have been teaching for 4 years.
Through those 4 years, I've had 3 different partners retire.
I am younger, so my admin does usually put me with older people to balance things out I guess.
I am very energetic and teach in a newer style while my partners are usually more traditional, sit down and shut up types. So, it really is a pretty decent balance.
BUT it really wears you down when you get a new partner every year and they just retire.
Need to get rid of someone? Make them my partner!

@tuijp: I was 7 around that time! We are close in age. XD
@schye: Thank you!
@mellonin: Yes! I'm excited about these event items. I'm trying to step out of my little box to earn them.

@anarchist beauty: Whoa. That's like.. Extra fired. That's fired from your next job before you're even hired.
I'm trying to think back, I don't think I've ever been fired from a job. I've quit, but I don't think I've been fired. hmmm....
