<div class="echo-streamserver-controls-stream-item-body echo-primaryColor"><span class="echo-streamserver-controls-stream-item-text">You can't burn out if you don't set yourself on fire. I, based on the work I did on the same as a <a href="http://writemyessay.pro/" target="_blank">write my essay pro</a> researcher, offer the following advice from a retired public school teacher. <br/> <br/>1. The staff and faculty are not your "family," unless you are referring to the Mafia. If someone needs to bury you, they will. Do not take people you don't know intimately as your confidant. Info is valuable and yours will be shared faster than Google. <br/> <br/>2. Don't think voicing vulnerability will make you look more caring. You may as well jump into a shark tank and cut yourself. <br/> <br/>3. Never, ever, ever express frustration. See Rule #1. <br/> <br/>4. Be happy but never too much so. Exuberance will be seen as a lack of stability. <br/> <br/>5. Do you think your #1 job is to mold young minds and widen their intellectual scope and knowledge base? Pulleezzzz. Your #1 job is to make sure that your administrator never feels uncomfortable. You can strangle the Easter Bunny in the hallway, and if it doesn't irritate your boss, you are good. If you blink too often at a meeting while your boss is sharing the latest super initiative that will cure all that ills education, you may as well build your own cross and sharpen your own nails. <br/> <br/>6. Your best chance of survival has nothing to do with your knowledge base, your hours of continuing education, or any other credentials. Your best tactic is to be compliant. Regardless how stupid the instructions may be, follow them. <br/> <br/>7. Never let them see you sweat. If the school is going to hell in a handbasket, look chipper.....Like Little Red Riding Hood. <br/> <br/>8. If something goes wrong and a parent complains, you will be at fault. In the death match arena of the malicious student, the bat-poo crazy mom, the assistant principal who had it land at his feet and you, prepare yourself for the yellow school bus because you will be thrown under it even if it is clear you were innocent. An unhappy parent won't leave administrators alone and they hate dealing with parents. The student is simply a victim of circumstance.</span></div> Thank you for sharing this Ed…tag:www.classroom20.com,2016-10-06:649749:Comment:11255482016-10-06T08:32:40.122ZLeesa johnsonhttps://www.classroom20.com/profile/Leesajohnson

<p>Thank you for writing this post, Ed. Multitasking definitely burns us out. Apart from "me" time, it's also important to occasionally take "real" breaks from the virtual world. Disconnecting aids mental detox and can help in the longer run. </p>
