All I Ever Wanted to Know about Dieting I Learned at Work

Posted by: Cory Plough | October 31, 2007 | 3 Comments |

I have learned so much about Weight Watchers, dress sizes, plus sizes, counting carbs, fat grams, and points this year at work that I wont ever have to watch Oprah again.

Not that I’m opposed to learning, Im just not so sure dieting should be the number one topic on a high school campus. Not even moaning about administration overtakes diettalk for the #1 spot. Now what kind of school is this?

In addition to dieting I was lucky enough to listen to teachers booking travel plans over the phone, getting tickets to hear a political speech, and planning their party/outing tonight. What I didnt hear was one teacher calling students and discussing how they can do help them do better in their courses in the 2nd quarter. hmmm,

Yes, I know, Im whining. This is a HS after all.

Oh Cory don’t you know that teachers are not supposed to care! I have come to the scary conclusion that only about 10% of teachers who are truly committed to making schools a better place. Too bad your school (and mine) does not have a system in place to track the number of times we contact (or attempt to contact) students.
