Sounds comfy. Could depend on the spinal support and alignment though. A cot keeps you off uneven ground. FWIW

My man, you need a better bed. I get this whenever I sleep on a shit bed somewhere.

If you’re camping take a cot

Correct.

In Latvia the reason they are even having this discussion is because when USSR were occupiers they suppressed the local language (Latvian) with a brutal police regime, concentration camps, and the forced migration of ethnic Russians.

So yes - exactly. Moscovite Russia/ USSR started a cultural genocide in Latvia. This is just the fallout

I know two teachers personally. This is not the case in my discussions with them and others. Maybe you can enlighten me on what does take 10 hours of time daily?

From speaking them they are absolutely not working from 8:0am - 6:00pm on every day.

Lesson plans are inherited from prior teachers and … yes continuously updated during the year but not at a major time cost every day. Grading takes a few hours for one day either on the weekend or in the evening.

And yes they complain about it constantly… it seems more a cultural thing. They also complain about other teachers complaining 🤣

I’m not touching the issue of summers off because yes that is a different thing, and yes it’s quite hard for them to get real employment.

Again salaries should be higher and support teachers not assuming they can work in the summer… but why conflate this with the daily hours ( which are frankly good as stated by those who I know in the profession as a reason they like and took the job)

Teachers are horrendously underpaid, but they need to stop complaining about the “hours”. It rings disingenuous to most who know the job.

Unless they are taking afterschool roles they work generally 8-3:00 with a potentially a few hours of work after for grading and lesson planning. This is along with numerous holidays / admin days during the school year.

I say this knowing personally a few teachers who complain about hours, and it seems to be a cultural thing not based in their reported real experiences.

The salary is shit, at least for non-senior roles in my state, but that is not a lot of hours relative to the average wage earner.

Rolexes are for people who understand total cost of operation

No, sorry. Please check the facts before correcting someone.

In its plural form “guys” is technically non-gendered:

Hey fellow traveler. Do make a post on Lemmy or share via a message. I would love to read what you wrote.

Inaccurate comment

It’s not impressive. No one holds them to task because of their oil wealth. Typical born on third and thinking you hit a triple syndrome

Not sure what’s going around - but also super sick during summer!!

I was recommended Oregano Concentrate (a natural anti-viral / bacterial) which really helped reduce the respiratory side of the sickness completely.

Except it’s fucking terrifying

This is stupid (not in a you’re a jerk way or anything though). But there is a word for that: “spree killer”

Marxism is a broader less problematic term

Yeah… I thought about it… and couldn’t be bothered to figure it out. Keep me posted though Quazar - maybe we can get one started.

Hey Quazar,

Great point and post. Any math + philosophy reddits you know of on Lemme?
