They treat white employees, and employees from other cultures, like garbage. They don’t understand the meaning of the terms “teacher contract” “chain of command” “bureaucracy” and they don’t seem to grasp the dynamics of an effective classroom environment. Anytime there’s a dispute, the lead teacher is never supported, and the assistants are always believed, even when they tell a flat out lie about someone. They are often allowed to move to any room they want just by dragging their feet. It wasn’t until I started my new teaching job, that I realized that I was only wrong to second guess myself. The assistants need to be told to get off their phones and start showing some respect where it’s deserved and earned.
If I knew the contract I signed didn’t guarantee me the job for the entire year, I never would have taken the job in the first place.
