I'd also like to know why so many politicians and laypeople are so damned ready to assume that they know more about my job than I do. I mean, clearly, I don't have, oh, I don't know, any specialized training in a particular field or professional experience or anything. Clearly, just anyone could do my job.
Ugh, WORD. There's this sense that teaching is a dumping ground for those who can't do anything else, instead of a SKILL and an art. I can't imagine how frustrating that must be.
