HR: we need to reinforce there is no official sick pay policy within the school
Me: ok but you paid me, was this a mistake? We can talk about a repayment if it was
HR: No that was fine but going forward this needs to be reinforced as we cannot guarantee that you will be paid in the future
Principal: actually I have decided that should he require to be out due to sick leave he will still be paid
HR: uh... I thought the purpose of this meeting was to explain there isn't an official sick leave policy?
Principal: yes but we will still be paying him for sick leave
HR: I'm sure there are reasons but we don't do this for any staff, it's always on a case by case basis
Principal: I understand but consider the fact all the computers actually work even when he's not in as opposed to how it was without him.
HR: *mental facepalm*
Me: Can I go now? I have work to do

I've given up hope in getting fired tbh.

The guy before me was absolutely useless.

Like I had to sit down with a bunch of key people in the school in the first week and go through literally a step by step process to show just how simple certain things were. Apparently the fact it takes 'less than two weeks' to 'set up and have the server activate a new email' blew their minds.

You work at a school. It's incredibly easy to get fired if you actually try.

Slightly harder to do so without having charges pressed admittedly but still doable.

I was in a classroom of 1st years (age 12-13) and a teacher was struggling to get a projector to work. Bulb blows. I say loud enough the class next door could hear apparently since the teacher came in 'fuck'.

Official response was 'please try to watch your language'.

It's hard to get fired in a school when you're actually good at the job tbh

Slightly paraphrased. It was more of a 'uh what the fuck am I telling him this for' from the HR guy but close enough to a mental facepalm

Money in education and not for profit sucks.
If I left for profit I'd easily make double or triple. I don't want to leave. I just like being reminded that they need me.

So the response then is "DID I ASK FOR YOUR FUCKING OPINION YOU FUCKING ****!", followed by a slew of false accusations at full volume containing as many swear words and obscene references as possible.

I do love my job
It's the best job I've had or probably could had
We're talking about a place I can walk in an hour late, have probably 5 issues already with classrooms and get 'we're just glad you're in'. I'm probably the only person who isn't a teacher (or the principal) who gets named in thank you emails from the parents in the school.

Nah some of the parents would complain if the kids told them
Like literally we're talking about people who fucking screamed at a teacher for calling their home during quarantine (Ireland was remote teaching for a few months) at 3pm because 'I have a job to do and am working from home' to check in with one of the kids who was struggling

Honestly I have gotten applause for fixing shit during classes before.
If anything I downplay the shit that happens. Schools are fucking weird.

I genuinely did try to quit a few weeks before I ended up in the suicide ward of a hospital.
He literally said the school would pay for it if I was unable to afford it (it was like a 300).
It's like a weird relationship
they provide hot women I can talk to and in return I provide working electronics

HR is actually great. HR is the one who emails me a week before every holiday to remind me we have the day off.
The problem is the context of the entire meeting was basically 'never fucking mention you're getting special rights in the school'

I could take this further but a) you don't wanna leave so it's pointless, and b) this is CE so I'll just have a ton of people on my back by the end of it for my ideas. Or end up banned because too many people completely miss the point.

Yea if your sense of humour is gonna get you modded I wouldn't risk it
At one stage there was a serious discussion of what disciplinary charges would be brought against me if I got drunk at work because we joked about it. It was unofficially decided 'if the students didn't notice then probably just a verbal warning'.

Sounds like a awesome job. Kind of reminds me of this janitor at my elementary. I think his name was bill. Everyone loved him and when he left when I was in fourth grade a lot if us kids were sad. Supposively he got sick and couldn't talk his last week and some of my friends said it's just cause he was a coward and didnt want to say anything. Don't know if that was true or not but they were obviously upset about it. Must be how the kids feel about you. If you left they probably be upset too.

Well the last guy none of the girls would go near him alone, they always had to be in groups because he'd stare and make them really uncomfortable. One of the teachers who has a kid at the school threatened to sue the school unless they made it so she could put requests in on behalf of her daughter (normally kids/parents are kept 100% separate)
But yeah the kids would miss me.
I'd miss them more. Especially when I mistakenly swear in front of one of the management level teachers and the kid is like 'he says worse around me'

Very hard to get fired when you know more than everyone else. My former managers didnt know anything about what I used to do other than I learned how to collect a boatload of A/R for them. When I left there were multiple viruses on my computer....oops

I'm very open with what I do and how long it takes. It's mostly the 'how the fuck do you manage to make it all work without making the school fall apart' is what keeps me hired.

Well... AKSHUALLY

a trainee teacher (21/22) did do some nude modelling and apparently some parent complained. She got to do her full year here and one kid was suspended and a few others got detention for discussing it
