I hate kids
I work (but only for 10 more days) in a secondary school and get to see the worst of kids who's mummy and daddy think they can do nothing wrong.

I've had kids accuse me of assault mainly after they tried to push their way through me, one tripped over his own feet while trying to run from me (which i found quite funny).

I'm sworn at on a daily basis, threatened occasionally (doesn't help that by the time they are 14 most of the sods are bigger than little old me) and even had one square up against me - I had had a foul day up to that point, so the look in my eyes as I growled come on then, must have registered as he swiftly backed off.

I've had parents coming up to me and moaning/shouting that I have stopped their little angel from disobeying school rules and how petty I am for doing so.

So I hate kids, little spoiled miserable wigger bastards that they mainly are.

But... last week I helped a Year 11 get some work back and convert some music he needed to a usable format. He came to see me the next day to say thank you for helping. I was actually stuck for words and had my faith in humanity restored for a while.

So after over 11 years working in a school, I'm finally leaving and going to work as a prison officer. I must be a fucking masochist.

and a little unrelatedish aside - last week two so called hard men chavs decided to pick on a small emo kid, taunting him about having no parents and other such shit. This kid is a lovely lad, quiet and well behaved. He told them that he had enough shit going on in his life without any from them. They took this as an excuse to start swinging for him. He floored both of the fuckers in quick succession much to all the staff's delight :o)

keep an eye on the emo kid

So you've already figured out that the inmates will be acting pretty much the same as a bunch of Year 11s?
Good for you, now you have a head start.

I knew someone who worked as a primary school teacher
She had done this job for the best part of 20 years, and loved it. Apart from the last four or five, where the levels of child behaviour and disobedience had got so bad that she actually found herself about to give one of the little (5 year old) terrors a good slap.

She signed herself off with stress, and then manouevered herself into redundancy soon after, then buggered off to Spain with her husband.

Prison office is, these days at least, a more honest job than teacher.

You even have the power to make discipline stick.
