It Never Hurts to Know Someone Gives a Crap

I had some good teachers and some that sucked badly. And a few truly egregious lump of shit teachers that would have been fired years ago if not for a union that makes damn sure teachers, no matter how bad, stay on the payroll.
My personal experience, is I would say 30% of teachers are really good at their job and really care.
And another 30% are still good, but just not as good as the first 30%.
Another 30% kind of suck. Mostly go through the motions, and have attitudes.
And then there is the 10% that should be fired immediately. Genuine assholes. Treat students badly, couldn't care less if anyone learns a damn thing.
And that probably applies to about any vocation percentages.

Actually, it's people who "give a crap" who are responsible for all the ills in the world.
You never saw a war or a persecution started by someone who doesn't care.
Benign indifference will save us all.

Another way of saying, "Live and let live". I like it..

The lessons of the recent beating-death in Memphis are apropos.
They dramatically lowered the standards for the police, with predictable and tragic results.
States will essentially be forced to do likewise in order to fill the ranks of teachers. One hopes that the criteria that remain will screen out idiots, pedophiles and psychopaths. But before "good people" will consider getting into teaching, they will, as a minimum, want to know that the environment will be safe. Is that possible?

Probably not today. Several of my teachers in HS were WW2 combat vets. My architectural drawing teacher was a fighter pilot. My social studies teacher did the walking tour from North Africa, through Italy, and into Germany. His only wounds were hearing loss from artillery fire. My shop teacher was a golden gloves boxer in his younger days. I had many male teachers in HS and would trust all of them with firearms. Not sure about the women teachers, but you didn't mess with any of them either.Most teachers you wouldn't want armed.
You don’t have to know someone personally to admire what they do.Do you know him personally?
