According to the New York State database of Teacher pensions in New York (available only with a Gannett subscription) the majority of teachers retire either at 30 years or age 55, whichever comes first. Frankly, I can’t blame them.
I had an email discussion with a man about a year ago. Throughout the whole discussion, which lasted about a month, he showed himself to be amazingly closed-minded, but he always maintained that he was open-minded.
How about… “Liberals should come up with a new excuse for voting for a bone stupid multi racial Cackling Commie poser witch besides she’s kinda black and a woman and I don’t want to be called a racist woman hater. Plus my propaganda amped hatred for the other guy.” God Bless America!
That teacher reminds me of the time I was in grammar school & I whined to a teacher, “I gotta stay in school until I’m 18!” She replied, “And I have to stay here until I’m 65!”
I think most teachers would get a laugh out of an answer like that. What really makes teaching a grind is wading through a pile of papers that have nothing meaningful to say about the question but aren’t funny either.
Why is Pig in school? I know it’s come up a handful of times over the years, but it’s so inconsistent that I can’t imagine he’s making any real progress.
I remember the senior level history class I took in college, where the task was to write a simulated journal article using primary sources. The instructor emphasized that grammar, syntax, and spelling would count in the grade.

Please don’t confuse closed-mindedness with, open-minded but haven’t been convinced that my current belief isn’t the correct one.

If Pig is able to compose a sentence and print it legibly, isn’t that worth at least a grade of B by today’s educational standards?

If you consider a person to be close minded, is it possible you are close minded yourself and want everyone to agree with you?
