jimmy: Childish and lazy: “Unfortunately, of the population of teachers that I've interacted with as a student and parent, the number of "clock watchers" is a super majority.”
Super majority?
“Super majority.” Let that soak in, jimmy.
You wrote, “Super majority,” and expect respect and credibility.
Poorly written: Your first two sentences are; “So if you are of the parenting streak, a labour leader, politician or teacher, you're aware that there's some fuss going on right now with teachers. If you're not one of those things (sic.), this still affects you but you won't feel it for a while.”
After several readings, I still don’t know what this means. The onus is the writer to be understood. Otherwise, he or she has failed, miserably.
“It is as illogical to them as if as their parent, I was angry with my employer and I took out my frustration on them.” Again, this is incomprehensible and ridiculously written.
You used “opinion” four times in one paragraph and then, again, in the first sentence of the next. For the sake of us readers, please, don’t be such a lazy, self-absorbed, narcissistic hack and try, a little, harder next time.
“TEACHERS ARE BULLY CHILDREN.”
Is full capitals yelling on the Internet? Do you have proof of this? Most teachers are women; does this have anything to do with your macho, hyperbolic posturing, jimmy?
I dare you to make a similar swipe at another demographic, publicly. I dare you, tough guy.
“My kids do not understand why their teachers are being mean to them.” If your kids’ teachers are bullying and being mean to them, for God’s sake, call the C.A.S., the police, the Spec, The CBC, The Toronto Sun, and the school board and have the criminals fired and arrested.
Why would you release your children to “mean bullies for 6.5 hours a day?”
What’s wrong with you? Unless you’re lying, you’re a worse parent than writer.
You claim to be a sweet, loveable, misunderstood, adorable victim, like Bob Young. I don’t buy it, for a second, cup cake.
Like you, I have a lot of opinions I like to share on the Internet, and I think everything about your submission and subsequent defence of it is creepily, disgustingly gross. I think you’re a gutless, passive-aggressive bully, who is a bigger disservice to his children than a teacher ever could be.
And, if you knew me, you’d know, like Bob Young, I’m a sweet, wonderful guy, well loved by everyone, who agrees with me.
Shucks, golly gee. Go, Cats! Teachers suck!
