Being a teacher in today's age is the ultimate redpill. If you don't get redpilled by the jewishness of teaching admins, today's kids, their shit behavior, and the fact that admins demand you take a nigger beating while smiling, then you simply are too far gone and cannot be redpilled.

I quit 1 semester into my MA for school counseling. The actual help that I want to provide students is buried beneath a load of red tape of the school board and policies. The entire education system is pozzed, not that thats anything new. The major thing I learned is how many go into this line of work with an actual passion and interest for helping students, then you realize most of them are shit heads, and the times you do want to help will end up either backfiring or will get you thrown under the bus for something. The system basically kills the passion anyone had and makes them reinforce the very same system they wanted to dismantle.
>Want to help students
>Stressed from paperwork, angry parents, school board who is breathing down your neck, heavy work load, etc.
>"Hold on, some kid an hero'd?"
>Time to put all your plans behind and set up a mental health week(s)

Many people dont realize that a good majority of teachers and school staff, even the shitty ones, at one point wanted to make a positive impact on their students. You either end up a cynical bastard, a punching bag, or a classroom dictator over time. Very few are able to weather through the decades long storm.

Okay. Here's what you need to do. Look up Service Based Companies/IT Consultation Companies like Accenture, Deloitte, Capgemini, etc. they will give free training and pay you so they can place you with their clients after.

What's the catch on these companies? I'm from the Philippines, they made me sign a 2 year bond although I don't think it exists in the USA because bonds are not enforceable, even here.

You won't really have any freedom to choose your projects, you're gonna to take what's available, but it's all in the tech field.

Full remote doesn't exist anymore in these companies it will either be hybrid or full office based now. So you're gonna have to move, you're in maryland so you'll have to move to New York for Accenture and Capgemini, Deloitte is in Texas I think.

If you're internally trained in these companies the promotions are frequent since they prefer you over outside experienced hires.

Although, if you want to take advantage of your previous work background, you could probably apply there as a manager already, although this is highly unlikely assuming you don't have any tech background, it's all about how you finesse the interview.

I've had managers before that didn't really know anything about tech but I find since they don't have technical knowledge, they were taken advantage of by the developers, spewing out bullshit during meetings when they haven't delivered their tasks yet/properly.

The reason I asked for your age first is because tech industry prefers younger folks, if you're in your late 30s or 40s no one will hire you for entry level or mid level anymore, at that age you'll have to be aiming for managerial level if you've been in the industry for that long.

>> No.54557544

It really does suck because the people who want to go into teaching are usually the ones who don't have the strong personality type. Instead of being in a nurturing and educational role, youre just an authoritarian with standardized tests to review with the option of your own personality sprinkled in. Going through my SC program it was discussed frequently how classroom management(discipline) wasnt nearly covered in teacher programs due to them not wanting aspiring teachers to have a stigma against their own students, yet when the classroom is out of control the teachers usually resort to flight, fight, or freeze in the given situation.

OP, coming from an anon who got out before it was too late, Im telling you to find something ASAP. Go be a forest ranger or something less stressful. Im saying this because you dont want to end up being the punching bag or the cynical authoritarian. Always remember there will be some roastie who throws chairs at her 4th grade students to replace you. Passions and money will come along the way, just dont lose your sanity.

this is why I went into regular psychotherapy counselling instead of school route after working in a high school for four years.

School counselors aren't even "counselors" as much as they are administrative bloatware who shuffle papers and encourage confused young girls into becoming gendersexualqueerpolysperms. The ideological insanity taught in public schools is absurd and made me hate my coworkers far more than teenagers who obviously will act out when fed the goyslop. Good intentions or not 90% of teachers are absolute NPCs, and the ones who go on to become vice-principals/principals are just psychopaths with a self-flagellation fetish

Yeah I was hoping to help more kids in a school setting, but if anything I should have been an MFT in a school setting which is pretty rare. And yeah I really couldnt deal with the ideological clash between my roastie cohort and me trying to keep my mouth shut. They looked at me like some sort of pet killer for suggesting trade school be an option for post secondary and no encouraging kids to go immediately into debt even if they dont know what to do. Its also my fault I didnt do enough research to see the actual counseling we do is few and far between, and on top of that it is often solution based as in "quit crying and do your work" type counseling. I unironically thought I had a chance of not shoving every bit of globohomo agenda down student's throats, but I realize thats an uphill battle I won't win.

At least now i work as an over glorified high paid premium tard educator. My case load is pretty easy and I probably get a higher base pay rate than actual special ed teachers.

Yeah the problem with teaching is that there will always be assholes, there will always be spoiled little shits thinking too highly of themself. If you are some nerdy introverted goody two shoes then teaching isn't for you. You're going to need to be an asshole to the little wannabe assholes, you're going to need to hard discipline the spoiled shits. I imagine that with the liberal bs teaching doctrine of today this kind of stuff is impossible, making teaching anything other than small amount of smart, quiet and empathetic kids too hard.

I make 65k and I literally just look at nice cars, write them up, keep my workers working, and that's it.
Probably the easiest most relaxed job I've ever had.
I can leave whenever I want too. Nothing holds me down

>pic related, that is what my job is, only it's less dignified
Not true, the school janitor has a better job than you do.
He can take drugs and mop floors while listening to music on headphones, and he probably makes about the same as you do.

can you get a job at an all white private school? or sell tutoring services part time while you go back to school for a career change, or explore adjacent careers?

my high school spanish teacher left teaching after a decade to become a teacher's union representative. a coworker (i'm an accountant) at my old job left teaching middle school after 4 years to retrain as an accountant. i also met a medical device sales rep at my old job who was formerly a high school science teacher.

If you are normal enough to teach people go to the SEA and teach engrish.
Not even kidding you will be treated like a celebrity especially since you have teaching experience as well.
I would do that if I wasn't a sperg

Just go move to a white conservative area and you can enjoy being a teacher again. If you take a job at a private school that doesnt accept any state funding you can do whatever based shit you want. Everyone is too afraid to speak up bc muh cancelling, but goddamn communists are ruining the west right now
