Have I mentioned that I hate BTSA? Wow. What a fabulous way to ensure that I *don’t* want to be a teacher.
(BTSA is mandatory for people who have a preliminary credential. It is further training to ensure that we are competent teachers. Near as I can tell what it really does is see who will put up with being treated like they are brain dead. I am so fucking livid at the hoops I have to jump through to have this job.)
once, when i was a research scientist, with a MSc
i told a guy i admired him for getting his PhD.
to which he replied:
“don’t. it just shows i was able to eat more shit than you.”
looks like this is sorta the same thing.
