Still haven't created any Marxists, but I'm working on the comedians.
You may want to work on your discipline and order skills in your job as government paid babysitter. Once you lose control of a classroom, it’s hard to get it back (and your school administration won’t have your back).

Of course, nobody ever said Szdfan was trying to create Marxists; I'm not sure what windmill he's tilting at.

Just think back to some of the things you’ve accused me of.

You could absolve yourself of some of those accusations it if you chimed in on ragpickers abortion thread, where he specifically asked for the left leaning on this board to respond.

That is, unless you believe it's a good idea to suck unborn babies out of mother's wombs while still alive. If you're not willing to denounce that, I'm not sure if I'd want you as a janitor at my childens' school, let alone a teacher.

Update on the “Yogert.” So this happened during my last period of the day. Starting with my first period class, I told them that if they are going to make fun of my name, they at least need to spell it correctly.

I then went through the etymology of “Yoder” since they are apparently I interested in my name. I also talked about the connection with Yoder and the Amish and that I had Amish family.

This got out and the student who changed my name was so embarrassed that they changed “Yogert” to “Yogurt” before my class. While they had checked out yesterday, they were much more engaged today.

As another bonus: one of my ranch kids who should be on an IEP and is disruptive got very excited when I mentioned the Amish. “They’re great farmers!” he exclaimed. Hopefully, that builds a connection and a relationship with that student.
