My last Monday in school

I'm so tired; I'm sick of parents who think tht I'm supposed to pass their children, no matter what their children are doing in class - like nothing. I will be so glad to be away from all the politics that come with the territory of teaching. It shouldn't be this difficult; it's not for everyone. As one of my friends said when she heard that I was hired: "How did you make it? You're not one of the pretty people!" I totally agree, and there have been many, many times that I wish that I hadn't. Some places are worse than others. The focus should be on educating our future, but instead, many of the administrators are too busy trying to be popular instead of realizing that popular isn't always the right way to be.
I know that no job is perfect, but when teaching is not the enjoyable task that it should be, then it is time to go. (In other words, what's the point of teaching if all it takes is complaining istead of work to get a grade?)
