Just had a job interview and in the middle of it had a bizarre out-of-body experience when I heard myself talking like Lachlan Connor. “You see a classroom is a community, and my students are part of that classroom, and so to build a positive school community I need to build positive students in my classroom.”
ps/- Why do I need to go to a job interview less than twelve months after getting a job? You can thank the Victorian Government’s over-reliance on contract employment for public school teachers. That’s one of the reasons that we’re stopping work tomorrow; along with the fact that Victorian teachers are on the lowest salaries in Australia. See you at Vodafone Arena at 10am.

Suck it up Commie. Just wait until you get your new AWA after the glorious return of the Rodentocracy this weekend!

Sorry, I’ve been spending too much time on Poll Bludger and the trolls have worn off on me.
I can see why you guys are going out tomorrow, I just hope it won’t have too much effect federally.

Are you going on strike tomorrow?
Over 50 teachers from my school are - apparently the most ever.

I can’t believe that just hours after winning ‘Editor of the Year’ at the GrodsCorp Awards, you had to beg for a job.
