Today was a good day. Well, all days are good, but this one was a meeting with my boss. I am truly desired he told me, and that I have a lots of knowledge and experience. Children loves me and so do my colleagues. I told him my future is with You all and the school, and that I have no plans at all to leaving. He was very relieved and happy. The meeting was about my profession as a teacher, something all teachers have once in a year (usually spring) and salary rise too.

Of course that I care about my salary, but I care more about other stuff that have an impact too. Like the atmosphere, how people treat each other and such. Stress is all the time in my profession as a teacher and I’m fine with that. As long as I’m not that “Mr. Contributer” for everyone (I can maybe clone me in two, but not in 10 staff members) and also please everyone. Otherwise I will hit the wall again. And that’s sometimes difficult to understand when the limit will be reached. And when is it time when you will say no to some colleagues without that they become upset.

I don’t know if there are any teachers here who can relate with this, but I bet there are others too who recognise this in their own profession. These demands that can pop up. Stress will always be stress, it’s a part of my profession as a teacher. But it’s those other factors that sometimes can be bananas. Like those above that I mentioned about.

Kind of depressing reading some of this text, I understand. But I always try to do some analysis and help others by not go same way I did. At least try. Now I wish you to have an wonderful weekend, dear reader.
