[Hoot Gibson]

Maybe, but I heard someone say if you do not like your career maybe it’s time to change?

That's right. If you don't enjoy your work, nobody is blocking the door. Just leave. Teachers, as a group, have got to be one of the biggest collections of whiners on planet Earth.

It has got to be disheartening for outstanding teachers who enjoy their profession often having to toil under incompetent administrators who should have been culled from the teacher rolls before being promoted.

For every truly outstanding teacher there is at least one lazy, incompetent teacher who would have trouble holding down a decent job in the private sector. I don't know of another profession where it is so easy for lazy people with political connections and meaningless degrees to fail their way into a management position.

There is no one who I respect more than a great teacher who has to report to a principal or other administrator who is a lazy political hack.
