11:23 after having my 3 kids at home during the pandemic, I learned that teachers deserve more than they get, more money and more respect for having to deal with our kids EVERYDAY. Thank you teacher for your great job. 👏 👏 👏
🐂💩.... Teachers are a part time job .... at BEST. Notice during the pandemic there was ZERO accountability in whether the kids actually did the required work-- they just kicked everyone upstairs to the next grade... can't disrupt that train upward and out.
As a teacher that developed deep depression because my school gave all the students iPads and I couldn't get my students to do anything, yeah. That tracks.
Ha my wife is a teacher who actually cares and loses it once a year on a kid, i laugh my a off while she feels bad i guess the equivalent of the nuns hitting or throwing things at us
You HAD never uttered those words. In the present tense, you used HAVE never (past tense) for something you're now doing (present tense). Sorry, teach! I couldn't help myself. Just kidding. I've had some serious grammar Nazis for teachers over the years! 🙂 I really appreciate all that our teachers do. You aren't paid enough!
My wife is an elementary school teacher. She had a student push her buttons so bad one day, she said a bad word. She told him to take his happy little a$$ to the office. So, she also had to go to the office and tell the principal what she did. During the meeting with the kids mother, they explained what my wife did and the kid did that drove it. The mom wasn't mad at all at my wife. She said that he had it coming.
As a teacher I can feel some of these teachers’ pain. But I can also laugh because what else can you do? You have your good days and your bad days. But you love when you see your kids succeed and are proud of themselves. Their smiles always make me smile.
I am a substitute teacher. Last time I was subbing for Math. And one of the students kept talking loudly, while I tried to take attendance. I kept asking them to quiet down. He didn't listen. I ended up raising my voice, but he didn't care. Moments later, I found out he did not speak English. Hmm, they can still quiet down during attendance, can't they? Anyway, for my next class period, they were also talking a lot, so I calmly said, "Hey guys I know you guys like to talk, but at least for attendance, let me take attendance quietly". It worked like magic. That was on a good day. In other schools, I have had students swearing, getting into fights, calling campus security, etc.
Chris Tucker is literally telling you how little support teachers get from admin without even knowing it. Imagine a principal being sent kids acting up in class and all they do is hang out with the kid rather than redirect the behavior. Now imagine that being the NORM! It's not funny so much as it's very sad. That's why teachers are leaving.
Yes, of course. One story is evidence of teachers not having administrative backup of epic proportions. Have you heard the story of that teacher who slept with a student? ALL TEACHERS MUST BE PEDOPHILES!
On the contrary, I believe schools would have a way healthier social enviroment if the staff having that kind of relationship with the students was the norm. Because kids are not machines that will follow every rule all the time, they are human beings that will benefit from a healthy, relaxed and mutually respectful relationship. I'm not saying there should never be consequences, but I am saying that just blurting out a joke during class, for example, should not get you sent to the principal's office. Being overly strict will only exhaust the teachers and make students obedient out of fear of shame, although that doesn't even work half the time.
I have seen that happen, too. The other students may think it's funny for a short time, but they eventually get tired of students who constantly disrupt. Sometimes the principal may need to give students attention. That's great, but not at the expense of the teacher and other 20+ students in the class. I am a teacher, and I have parents who come into conferences and excuse behaviors of their child due to ADHD. I understand their needs, but I teach a group of more than 20 students each period, all with needs, sometimes having 40% with ADHD and 10& with ASD, which often need opposite environments. Teachers and administrators cannot give every student 10 minutes of 1 on 1 time every week. It cannot be done numerically with more than 30 students.. Teachers are the ones exhausted trying to address all the needs of students AND teach higher thinking skills related to their subject area at the same time.
I have dated about 4 teachers over the course of my life and every single 1 of them was just a total train wreck of substance abuse. Personally I've been teaching English as a foreign language now for 7 years And have definitely not been on my best behavior. Darn right that's why I show videos during class
When I had a fight with my teacher, the next day the principal called me out in front of all the students as he was about to announce my one week suspension. He said "I'm suspending you for giving your teacher a very big blow" everyone started laughing.
My breaking point as a teacher, as in Mo's story, was when, for the third time in the same lesson, I had to stop a fourteen-year-old from walking around the classroom and holding up a ruler to people's groins as if it was a penis. I realized then and there that working with kids was going to make me miserable for the rest of my life, and quit soon after.
I work with kids and really enjoy it, but then, I don’t make them do boring, brain-dead activities, and I don’t trap them indoors all day. It’s not the kids. It’s the context.
@@meganbaker9116Let me get this straight, you're a working adult with a degree, have to be, because you're a teacher. Instead of teaching your students to be successful the way you are, you tell them to go outside and play and learn, and then what? Some of them will get job trainings, great, some will try to go to college and not understand why they now have to do paper exercises and study in libraries until midnights and you didn't equip them for this. Why would you do that to these young minds? Children are way more resilient than you think and letting them learn to cope with boredom is the most valuable thing you can teach them.

I, on the other hand, respect their nature and their true needs, so I refrain from making myself the hero of their stories. They come into the world burning to learn and infinitely capable of doing so. Sadly, when they go to school we crush their curiosity and love of learning.

It’s not surprising that so few people understand this when we’re taught so many stupid things about children in the developed world in general, and especially the U.S. Spare me the conventional BS about education. I’ve heard it all and it’s still ridiculous and ignorant.
Why when Hannah is telling her story all I'm picturing is the cartoon Bluey? Lmao. It must be a mom thing. But picturing it as bluey made it 100% more funnier to me hahahaha
The hate towards her is mostly misogynia, homophobia and the fact that she doesnt fit the norm of how women in the business should look like. It has nothing to do with her work. She could be the best ever, but there would still be hate.
Im willing to admit hannah gadsby is fkn hilarious. Every neuro atypical or queer ive introduced her to has had laughing fits while watching her specials.
"No Brandon. We all know what shit is. It's what you're full of." To be fair, my 6th grade teacher was right. But she should've retired before she started hating children.
12:07 hey that’s me! I’m one of my Spanish teacher’s “favorites” because I always get my work done on time and I guess I remind her of her younger self or something, but she trusts me with her life. Some of my guy friends sit at the table with me in Spanish and talk and goof off the whole time while I do all the group work (which I actually prefer I love working alone) and when they get yelled at to stop talking I defend them with the “they were talking about the work, I’m just writing everything because I have nice handwriting” and she almost always believes me! It’s nice being the class pet when you can use it to defend your goofball friends
Chris Tucker's friendly principal reminded me of mine. Something happened, and I needed to tell her about a life and death emergency. I had never done that before, so I didnt handle it as well as I could have. I walked into the principal's office, right past the receptionist, and into the principal's office and shut the door and sat down in one of the guest chairs. Nobody has ever done that, and if she made a list of the most likely people to do it, I would not have been on the list. So I had her attention, because she knew whatever happened next was going to be the most interesting thing of the day, maybe month. "Can I help you?" (Slightly accusatorial, as I was an invader, but also genuinly curious) "Yeah. Andy just asked me to help him kill himself." About this time, the receptionist has come out from behind her desk, and opened the door to see what was going on. The principal dismissed her, "That's alright, thanks." Then turned to me, trying to be as serious as she could without being scary, "Are you serious?" Because "we" have performed jokes about as tasteless before, so not unreasonable to ask. "Yes." I said, with no hint of irony or levity. "OK, thanks, can you send the receptionist in?" And I left, telling the receptionist that the principal wanted to see her, the principal saying "close the door" as she entered. And I went back to class and didn't speak of it to anyone until I next saw Andy over a year later. Andy was a large boy. Held back multiple grades, not for smarts, but for behavior problems. People teased him for it. I was one of the few who treated him the same as I treat everyone else, so he considered me a friend. I was tiny. I entered high school at 4'10", and andy was taller than some teachers, and wider than all of them. He had come to me between classes and pulled me aside. We went to an empty room. He explained that he wanted to die, but if he dies by suicide, then his family wouldn't get insurance. So he was asking for help on suicide/accidents. I said, "well electrocutions are accidental, not suicides, and we are on the 3rd floor," and I walked to a window for effect, and threw it open. "But most of the area under the windows is grass, which would hurt and break things, but wouldnt be fatal. Also hard to make it look accidental. Let me think about it some and we'll talk after I think up some options.". I wanted him to have something to wait for, think about, so I didnt leave him suicidal next to an open wondow with hopes of being successful in his attempt. And that's when I went to thr principal's office. When he came back to school, I was worried he would be mad. He found me his first day back, and tried to apologize for putting me in that position, but failed the apology so bad he had to have been ordered to do it by a parent or therapist. But he did manage a genuine "thanks" for getting him back into the institution that day for help he needed. I was 14 or 15 at the time. The principal sent a kid to an institution off my word. But I'm sure they asked Andy first, and he would have admitted it. Nobody gave Andy a hard time about it, because only the teacher and me knew why he disappeared that day and wasnt back for a year. But once back, he was supposed to be more open, and he talked about it, so I had kids asking me about it from him, so figured it was no longer a secret I had to keep. All because the principal was trusting enough when a problem was reported to her from one of the students she knew of, but we had hardly exchanged more than a "hello" before that. It must have been early in the year. 35 years ago, that detail is gone from my memory.
Most teachers can drink anyone under the table. Frankly, most of us didn’t drink until after we started teaching. lol Yes, we do love our kids and we care about them. We are also human and kids will test the most dedicated teacher. God bless the educators. ❤️❤️❤️
Last comedian still doesn't realize that he was the a**hole in that situation. I'm very sure I've accused the wrong student of taking before, but not unless that student had been making my life hell from being a jerk of a student countless times before that.
Hahaha sometimes you just gotta let it be. I mean the job of a teacher is to teach and students to learn. So if the student is not doing theyre job which is learning. I believe it is up to the teacher to engange them so they can learn. I really don't understand why teachers get mad at kids doing kids stuff. Even in highschool, you all have been in highschool and you know what it feels as a student. And if you want to become a teacher, and want an easy job where all students just behave they way you want, then my bad, thats not gonna happen bro 😅. An Educators job is hard, and if you dont like that, then i would straight out say dont be one. Is the kid in the wrong ? Yeah, but the teacher as an adult should be correcting them, not just yelling and screaming and venting your anger when you are the adult that is suppose to guide these kids, no matter if they are right or wrong. Thats what a teacher is right ? A guide, not a yeller.
@@JK_Clark What are you implying and what dont you understand from my comment ? What do you mean by ignoring the other 29 students ? I'm just stating the fact that being a teacher is not an easy job. And a teacher should be someone who guide theyre student , not just yell and vent theyre anger at them. Do YOU want your kids to be taught by someone who just yells and vent theyre frustation at them , or do you want someone who try to guide AND understand the situation of being a teacher AND understand what being a student BECAUSE they were once sitting on those chairs as a student as well ??
To the mean acting teacher problem: One day, we asked my little sister (she was 8 at the time in 3rd grade) how school was. Her response: “Ouuhhhgg my German teacher is having marriage problems.” We asked how she knew about it: “She’s just so angry this week.”
Hannah talked about going from teachers pet to teachers nemesis. When I was in second grade, we had thr first parent conferences coming up. It was close to Halloween, so thr teacher ordered us to art. We were instructed to "draw a man with two orange heads." I have dysgraphia, so my drawings sucked. I couldn't physically draw a man with two heads. Best I could do was a man that looked normal, then a tumor on his shoulder. So I came up with something I could draw. I handed in a drawing of a man. A regular man. And in each hand, he held one orange Jack o'Lantern. I was proud of my man, with two orange heads. So the teacher dragged me to the principal's office and I was paddled for insubordination and disruptive behavior, or something like that. At the time, that was criminal assault and battery and child abuse. A law had been passed that required parentap notification of all corporate punishment. Withiut notification, it was treated like the rest of the penal code. When parent day came, I went in with mom, and tonthe classroom. The aelrt was up, and she couldn't find mine. So I told the story, though not nearly so eloquently, as I was just 7 years old. So she demanded the story from thr teacher, who told the story because she still didnt think she did anything wrong. So my mom stormed to the principal's office to scream at the principal, and explain the backstory, which he wasnt given at the time. Realizing he had done the wrong thing, he was much nicer after. But for most days between that and the end of the year, the teacher would lock me in a closet over lunch, and send me to the unlocked closet in class. She couldnt lock me in the class closet, because if anyone came in, she could call me back and ask if I found those pens she sent me to get. But unlocking the closet to get me would have given away the full story. But the supply closet I was locked in over lunch was never used, so nobody would check, so she felt comfortsble locking me in. Good thing there were no fires while I was there. I eas never the pet, but I went from "mostly ignored" to "nemesis" with a single drawing. John J Pershing Elementary. Dallas ISD.
I've asked kids in my class to answer a question when they weren't listening before... except in real life, instead of knowing what osmosis is, they couldn't tell me major plot points that had just been discussed over multiple pages in our book. And that last line is so infuriating. "I'd be listening if you were doing your job and teaching?" Just because something sounds clever doesn't magically make it true. The reason class stopped in the first place is because the teacher WAS teaching and you were NOT listening, preventing yourself and other students from paying attention to important information. Sorry... I have a kid like you in my class, so this is very triggering, lol.
Having the unique perspective of being a problem student, and aware of the difficulties of teaching (at least in Australia)... Just because you're up there speaking doesn't mean you're teaching. You want to use the "Just because you can hear me doesn't mean you're listening"? Well that works both ways. Take for example reading as a group. That garbage where the teacher randomly picks students to read certain sections, until they take mercy on the poor near illiterate children, only to ask the advanced reader to take over. The advanced reader who's read several chapters ahead by this point. Of course they aren't listening. It's not the teachers fault entirely either, to be fair. Up to ~30 children (or more?) for one teacher is too much. You can't possibly reach every student, even if curriculum and standards allow you to.
Not sure about the video thing. At my school videos weren't allowed unless we got it approved in advance and it had to fit in with the overall lesson objectives.
Most teachers barely show videos now, at least at the elementary level in my experience as a sub and instructional assistant. We watched more when I was a kid.
*As student myself, I could tell you, there are teachers that deserve being called that, and then there are those who doesn't deserve any respect, so not every teacher should receive an applause but those who went far beyond their classes to educate and create great humans, they deserve to be recognized*
He is SAVAGE. Bring back the savage. Bring back the things you "can't say". If it couldn't be said, an audience wouldn't laugh. Life is hard for all. As we say in Jamaica" take bad thing make joke". That's how you life a long life. In today's world, an easy trigger means a sooner death. Natural selection. Learn to laugh. Laughter is healing.
I feel like Hannah's stand up is for a certain type of crowd. I definitely dont mind/was able to watch 2 of her specials a while back but i can see why others wouldnt like it lol
"What is yesterday?" I remember asking something like that also, lol smh . Who's fault fornotknowing? Me,, my teacher or my mother? Not my teacher's fault,.😢
I came from a small town up north that had a tire park. Huge tires like that are positioned in different ways, but old school, and they didn't take all the nails out 😂
Amen to the 80s recess!!!! I was in a San francisco elementary school, so it was all cement but that was basically how it was. Dodge balls to the face and teacher were either fun and thought we were silly cute funny kids or the bitter lady (all women then) who detested children, which I never understood. But bloody lips and broken bones were all part of being a kid. Now, honestly, I don't know how to describe because I don't understand it
@@brandybaker3280Children has always been delicate 😂 Children born in India in the 1850s are as delicate as children born in the US today. The biology hasn't changed. Am I missing something?

I had a classmate who became a gym teacher. When he drank too much the night before, the next morning in class he would play the game "who can be the quietest"....in gym class!! I don't believe he was there very long because he always smelled like a brewery.
As a homeschooling teacher, I never got drunk, videos and movies are SMALL part of the school curriculum and my phone was actually monitored due to 'interest' in my grammar and math lessons and extra family activities like Christmas and birthday parties. Homeschooling teachers are now 'hot commodities' and equally despised and do need proper security to protect their assets.
Some teachers show videos when they need to grade papers. Also, some teachers who live in states other teachers flee due to low pay end up having up to five times the workload of most teachers to make up for those losses (five lesson plans per day versus two not including Individual Education Plans). In such cases, corners MUST be cut.
My elementary school had an entire pyramid of tractor tires that were bolted together. We would gather every morning to establish some kind of daily pecking order like monkeys in a tree.
1957 my 1st grade sick with every dease in the books miss halfbthe school year. Measles, mumps ect. Last day of 1st grade read my report card the teacher flunked me. I went to her desk, "Mrs Sheep why you flunk me. I know my numbers, letters, how to write my name". Anyway Mrs Sheep stated, "Son I know you can write your name, know your letters and numbers. But boy I been trying to tell you for over a year. My name isnt Mrs Sheep. Its Mrs Lamb"!True story.
We actually did that tire thing in daycare when I was like 7-8 in AZ. She's not kidding that's an actual thing. We would also stack the big tractor tires and kids would crawl in, then the older kids would drop the smaller tires in the middle and trap them in there to see how long they could go without crying to get out.
The last part ticked me... "Oh you know so much about teaching? Let me sit on your desk and you teach for the rest of the lesson. Take that for a teaching moment." This is when I'm "happy" my students are not fluent enough to say this kind of BS.
I remember a day when my teacher lost it. Someone tried to defend someone else because she was clearly fucking psycho and she just threw her reading glasses across the room. Such a weird day.
11:23 after having my 3 kids at home during the pandemic, I learned that teachers deserve more than they get, more money and more respect for having to deal with our kids EVERYDAY. Thank you teacher for your great job. 👏 👏 👏

Not sure why Hannah Gadsby gets so much hate. Is she the greatest comic ever? No. But she’s still enjoyable and clearly a gifted writer.
The hate towards her is mostly misogynia, homophobia and the fact that she doesnt fit the norm of how women in the business should look like. It has nothing to do with her work. She could be the best ever, but there would still be hate.
@@FemmeBaer
*misogyny
*should look
The puppet story almost killed me 😂😂😂
Im willing to admit hannah gadsby is fkn hilarious. Every neuro atypical or queer ive introduced her to has had laughing fits while watching her specials.
"No Brandon. We all know what shit is. It's what you're full of."
To be fair, my 6th grade teacher was right.
But she should've retired before she started hating children.
As a new teacher this is hilarious 😂
Check out Liz blanc, she’s hilarious
Get out while ya can!
As a teacher… I approve 🤣🤣🤣

12:07 hey that’s me! I’m one of my Spanish teacher’s “favorites” because I always get my work done on time and I guess I remind her of her younger self or something, but she trusts me with her life. Some of my guy friends sit at the table with me in Spanish and talk and goof off the whole time while I do all the group work (which I actually prefer I love working alone) and when they get yelled at to stop talking I defend them with the “they were talking about the work, I’m just writing everything because I have nice handwriting” and she almost always believes me! It’s nice being the class pet when you can use it to defend your goofball friends
I'm a high school teacher who asks my students consistently, "for the love of God what are you doing?!"
Kenny Sebastian is so underated !!!he is a great stand up comedian and music artist.
I never heard of Mo Gilligan. Is he popular in england or something? Im about to search for more of his standup! 😅

Chris Tucker's friendly principal reminded me of mine.
Something happened, and I needed to tell her about a life and death emergency.
I had never done that before, so I didnt handle it as well as I could have.
I walked into the principal's office, right past the receptionist, and into the principal's office and shut the door and sat down in one of the guest chairs.
Nobody has ever done that, and if she made a list of the most likely people to do it, I would not have been on the list. So I had her attention, because she knew whatever happened next was going to be the most interesting thing of the day, maybe month.
"Can I help you?" (Slightly accusatorial, as I was an invader, but also genuinly curious)
"Yeah. Andy just asked me to help him kill himself."
About this time, the receptionist has come out from behind her desk, and opened the door to see what was going on. The principal dismissed her, "That's alright, thanks."
Then turned to me, trying to be as serious as she could without being scary, "Are you serious?" Because "we" have performed jokes about as tasteless before, so not unreasonable to ask.
"Yes." I said, with no hint of irony or levity.
"OK, thanks, can you send the receptionist in?"
And I left, telling the receptionist that the principal wanted to see her, the principal saying "close the door" as she entered.
And I went back to class and didn't speak of it to anyone until I next saw Andy over a year later.
Andy was a large boy. Held back multiple grades, not for smarts, but for behavior problems. People teased him for it. I was one of the few who treated him the same as I treat everyone else, so he considered me a friend. I was tiny. I entered high school at 4'10", and andy was taller than some teachers, and wider than all of them.
He had come to me between classes and pulled me aside. We went to an empty room. He explained that he wanted to die, but if he dies by suicide, then his family wouldn't get insurance. So he was asking for help on suicide/accidents.
I said, "well electrocutions are accidental, not suicides, and we are on the 3rd floor," and I walked to a window for effect, and threw it open. "But most of the area under the windows is grass, which would hurt and break things, but wouldnt be fatal. Also hard to make it look accidental. Let me think about it some and we'll talk after I think up some options.". I wanted him to have something to wait for, think about, so I didnt leave him suicidal next to an open wondow with hopes of being successful in his attempt.
And that's when I went to thr principal's office.
When he came back to school, I was worried he would be mad. He found me his first day back, and tried to apologize for putting me in that position, but failed the apology so bad he had to have been ordered to do it by a parent or therapist. But he did manage a genuine "thanks" for getting him back into the institution that day for help he needed. I was 14 or 15 at the time.
The principal sent a kid to an institution off my word.
But I'm sure they asked Andy first, and he would have admitted it.
Nobody gave Andy a hard time about it, because only the teacher and me knew why he disappeared that day and wasnt back for a year. But once back, he was supposed to be more open, and he talked about it, so I had kids asking me about it from him, so figured it was no longer a secret I had to keep.
All because the principal was trusting enough when a problem was reported to her from one of the students she knew of, but we had hardly exchanged more than a "hello" before that. It must have been early in the year. 35 years ago, that detail is gone from my memory.
Even though you didn't know, you saved a life. Be kind to yourself. You will do it again. Unbeknownst to you. Peace.
wow ... quite a position for a kid to be in .... good job !
You handled that AMAZINGLY well. That was some very quick thinking on your part!!! Good for you.
I hope Andy is still around today and is doing OK...
Because of you a family didn’t lose their kid! The world didn’t lose Andy! Thank you & your principal 🎉
Loved Hannah's! Mostly because it strengthened my suspicion that I'm on the spectrum and it was nice to find a kindred spirit 😅
The box joke murders me every time😂😅
Most teachers can drink anyone under the table. Frankly, most of us didn’t drink until after we started teaching. lol Yes, we do love our kids and we care about them. We are also human and kids will test the most dedicated teacher. God bless the educators. ❤️❤️❤️
Last comedian still doesn't realize that he was the a**hole in that situation. I'm very sure I've accused the wrong student of taking before, but not unless that student had been making my life hell from being a jerk of a student countless times before that.
Hahaha sometimes you just gotta let it be. I mean the job of a teacher is to teach and students to learn. So if the student is not doing theyre job which is learning. I believe it is up to the teacher to engange them so they can learn. I really don't understand why teachers get mad at kids doing kids stuff. Even in highschool, you all have been in highschool and you know what it feels as a student. And if you want to become a teacher, and want an easy job where all students just behave they way you want, then my bad, thats not gonna happen bro 😅. An Educators job is hard, and if you dont like that, then i would straight out say dont be one.
Is the kid in the wrong ? Yeah, but the teacher as an adult should be correcting them, not just yelling and screaming and venting your anger when you are the adult that is suppose to guide these kids, no matter if they are right or wrong. Thats what a teacher is right ? A guide, not a yeller.
@@johnmike8183 so us ignore the other 29 students in the class, because they are doing what they should? Glad you aren't teaching my kids.
@@JK_Clark What are you implying and what dont you understand from my comment ? What do you mean by ignoring the other 29 students ?
I'm just stating the fact that being a teacher is not an easy job. And a teacher should be someone who guide theyre student , not just yell and vent theyre anger at them.
Do YOU want your kids to be taught by someone who just yells and vent theyre frustation at them , or do you want someone who try to guide AND understand the situation of being a teacher AND understand what being a student BECAUSE they were once sitting on those chairs as a student as well ??
Ms. Fortune is on the dot. All our playgrounds were lined with shredded tires!
The last story about a teacher getting angry for the missed opportunity to embarrass him was so real
I’m a teacher and I think about that Mulaney bit anytime I show a video 😂
To the mean acting teacher problem:
One day, we asked my little sister (she was 8 at the time in 3rd grade) how school was. Her response:
“Ouuhhhgg my German teacher is having marriage problems.”
We asked how she knew about it:
“She’s just so angry this week.”
The box joke was great
I see John Mulaney, I click.
Hannah talked about going from teachers pet to teachers nemesis.
When I was in second grade, we had thr first parent conferences coming up. It was close to Halloween, so thr teacher ordered us to art. We were instructed to "draw a man with two orange heads."
I have dysgraphia, so my drawings sucked. I couldn't physically draw a man with two heads. Best I could do was a man that looked normal, then a tumor on his shoulder.
So I came up with something I could draw.
I handed in a drawing of a man. A regular man. And in each hand, he held one orange Jack o'Lantern.
I was proud of my man, with two orange heads.
So the teacher dragged me to the principal's office and I was paddled for insubordination and disruptive behavior, or something like that.
At the time, that was criminal assault and battery and child abuse. A law had been passed that required parentap notification of all corporate punishment. Withiut notification, it was treated like the rest of the penal code.
When parent day came, I went in with mom, and tonthe classroom. The aelrt was up, and she couldn't find mine. So I told the story, though not nearly so eloquently, as I was just 7 years old.
So she demanded the story from thr teacher, who told the story because she still didnt think she did anything wrong.
So my mom stormed to the principal's office to scream at the principal, and explain the backstory, which he wasnt given at the time. Realizing he had done the wrong thing, he was much nicer after.
But for most days between that and the end of the year, the teacher would lock me in a closet over lunch, and send me to the unlocked closet in class.
She couldnt lock me in the class closet, because if anyone came in, she could call me back and ask if I found those pens she sent me to get. But unlocking the closet to get me would have given away the full story.
But the supply closet I was locked in over lunch was never used, so nobody would check, so she felt comfortsble locking me in.
Good thing there were no fires while I was there.
I eas never the pet, but I went from "mostly ignored" to "nemesis" with a single drawing.

I ended up teaching English in Korea longer than expected. I have a newfound respect for teachers and am affirmed I never want children.
How were the kids?
Wow, this is a masterpiece. The scenes looking down the roads with the sun in your eyes is my favorite. Great work!
I've asked kids in my class to answer a question when they weren't listening before... except in real life, instead of knowing what osmosis is, they couldn't tell me major plot points that had just been discussed over multiple pages in our book. And that last line is so infuriating. "I'd be listening if you were doing your job and teaching?" Just because something sounds clever doesn't magically make it true. The reason class stopped in the first place is because the teacher WAS teaching and you were NOT listening, preventing yourself and other students from paying attention to important information. Sorry... I have a kid like you in my class, so this is very triggering, lol.
You don't know that to be true. Perhaps he had a truly shitty teacher who wasn't doing his/her job. They do exist.
Having the unique perspective of being a problem student, and aware of the difficulties of teaching (at least in Australia)... Just because you're up there speaking doesn't mean you're teaching. You want to use the "Just because you can hear me doesn't mean you're listening"? Well that works both ways.
Take for example reading as a group. That garbage where the teacher randomly picks students to read certain sections, until they take mercy on the poor near illiterate children, only to ask the advanced reader to take over. The advanced reader who's read several chapters ahead by this point. Of course they aren't listening.
It's not the teachers fault entirely either, to be fair. Up to ~30 children (or more?) for one teacher is too much. You can't possibly reach every student, even if curriculum and standards allow you to.
As a teacher I appreciate this
The box joke murders me every time
The puppets at 5:15 took me out 😂😂😂😂😂
I’m so happy, that I’m not the only one who had weird teachers, when I was younger!!!
Now I know what prepositions are
That's why teachers show videos? 😆
Seeing your teacher drunk at a restaurant with your family is the worst!
My Best wishes for your work Love and Peace to your family !😀
Bro at the end actually explained diffusion not Osmosis. It was close, but Osmosis specifically involves H2O.
Not sure about the video thing. At my school videos weren't allowed unless we got it approved in advance and it had to fit in with the overall lesson objectives.
Most teachers barely show videos now, at least at the elementary level in my experience as a sub and instructional assistant. We watched more when I was a kid.
As a teacher, can confirm 😂
*As student myself, I could tell you, there are teachers that deserve being called that, and then there are those who doesn't deserve any respect, so not every teacher should receive an applause but those who went far beyond their classes to educate and create great humans, they deserve to be recognized*

I feel like Hannah's stand up is for a certain type of crowd. I definitely dont mind/was able to watch 2 of her specials a while back but i can see why others wouldnt like it lol
What type of crowd?
Love the box jokes. 😅😅
The assembly to be yelled at was thing for me in grade school and middle school 😂
"What is yesterday?" I remember asking something like that also, lol smh . Who's fault fornotknowing? Me,, my teacher or my mother? Not my teacher's fault,.😢
Hannah Gadsby is so me lol
Her move for rolling the tire shows she never really rolled one
She wasn't funny
I don’t know how she was supposed to replicate rolling down a hill in a tire without actually doing a somersault.
We used to do an ice block race down a GREEN hill. In summer, when school was over…
I know, understand why I love snowboarding …
I came from a small town up north that had a tire park. Huge tires like that are positioned in different ways, but old school, and they didn't take all the nails out 😂
I haven't seen the Douglas special yet. I wasn't ready. Laughing so hard I think I've injured myself
Punching down? The laughs show that society concurs. Imagine why there is an international teacher shortage.
Amen to the 80s recess!!!! I was in a San francisco elementary school, so it was all cement but that was basically how it was. Dodge balls to the face and teacher were either fun and thought we were silly cute funny kids or the bitter lady (all women then) who detested children, which I never understood. But bloody lips and broken bones were all part of being a kid. Now, honestly, I don't know how to describe because I don't understand it
No they sob like 2 year olds if they get a bump or paper cut now. They’re very delicate these days.

I had a classmate who became a gym teacher.
When he drank too much the night before, the next morning in class he would play the game "who can be the quietest"....in gym class!!
I don't believe he was there very long because he always smelled like a brewery.
As a homeschooling teacher, I never got drunk, videos and movies are SMALL part of the school curriculum and my phone was actually monitored due to 'interest' in my grammar and math lessons and extra family activities like Christmas and birthday parties. Homeschooling teachers are now 'hot commodities' and equally despised and do need proper security to protect their assets.
As a homeschooling teacher, you are extremely competent at writing run-on sentences.🤨
@@ca2712 You should see the child I homeschooled algebric sentences...they are all the rage in some circles.
Some teachers show videos when they need to grade papers. Also, some teachers who live in states other teachers flee due to low pay end up having up to five times the workload of most teachers to make up for those losses (five lesson plans per day versus two not including Individual Education Plans). In such cases, corners MUST be cut.
My elementary school had an entire pyramid of tractor tires that were bolted together. We would gather every morning to establish some kind of daily pecking order like monkeys in a tree.

1957 my 1st grade sick with every dease in the books miss halfbthe school year. Measles, mumps ect. Last day of 1st grade read my report card the teacher flunked me. I went to her desk, "Mrs Sheep why you flunk me. I know my numbers, letters, how to write my name". Anyway Mrs Sheep stated, "Son I know you can write your name, know your letters and numbers. But boy I been trying to tell you for over a year. My name isnt Mrs Sheep. Its Mrs Lamb"!True story.
Home maid
puppets… lol
We actually did that tire thing in daycare when I was like 7-8 in AZ. She's not kidding that's an actual thing. We would also stack the big tractor tires and kids would crawl in, then the older kids would drop the smaller tires in the middle and trap them in there to see how long they could go without crying to get out.
The last part ticked me...
"Oh you know so much about teaching? Let me sit on your desk and you teach for the rest of the lesson. Take that for a teaching moment."
This is when I'm "happy" my students are not fluent enough to say this kind of BS.
It does not work. They will just make the Class laugh for an hour and not teach anything.
