RE: My Boss Calls Me All The Time by Opanka44(m): 9:31pm On Oct 02, 2023 |
Pleasant Greetings to all Nairalanders, Earlier today, I made a post wherein I complained about my Employer's incessant, unsolicited and unwarranted calls particularly at odd Hours. I also laid some other complaints. However, I noticed a few commenters didn't get the exact point I was driving at. I'm by God's grace, a rational & objective kind of person. I'm an embodiment of factualism, I'm an empiricist. For clarity sakes, here are some of the many Shortcomings of my Employer: ✓ First, He violates my right of Privacy by calling me almost all the time & at odd Hours like 11pm and 5am only for inconsequential reasons. ✓ Secondly, He takes sides with Parents and learners in conflictual situations, at the detriment of his staff even when there are glaring evidences that the teacher is actually right. And as result of this, parents & learners have become emboldened to do even worse. Teachers get abused and insulted by parents & nothing is done by the management. A JSS2 student had the guts to tell me that I was so broke & couldn't buy an Android phone, reason I'm using a torchlight phone. I eventually bought a brand new Android phone, & same student told me that the phone was a second-hand phone. I didn't flog the student & I never reported the matter to the sch mgt. I only advised the student stop such. I was surprised when my Employers heard about it but never called the learner to order or even apologized to me. In fact, they stylishly took side with the learner & were defending the student. The saddest part is, if it were me who told a student that they are Broke, the parents of the learner would have fought me the next day and my employers would have lambasted me so badly. Another Student once told a teacher that he wore an Okrika shirt. He wore a fake shirt. You can imagine such audacity. ✓ Thirdly, He indulges me in administrative tasks even when I'm not a management staff. I consider it unprofessional. On any Saturday, he would call me to join other two management staff to interview Job seekers. He sends me to represent the school at Official functions. ✓ As a teacher, you're not at liberty to scold your students, else it could be misconstrued to hating on the Child. If a student is caught cheating in exams/test, you can not discipline or deduct or cancel it. You can only verbally warn the child. ✓ If any parent says he wants a female/male teacher to be the class teacher of a certain class, the sch obeys instantly. ✓ A learner who is meant to repeat a class isn't repeated by the sch. And as they progress from the one class to a higher class and learning becomes tougher, they begin to fail and when they fail and a teacher complains, they put the whole blame on the teacher, labelling the teacher a Failure for allowing his learners to fail. ✓ They have continued to admit dullards into classes they shouldn't admit them into and it's all posing a serious challenge to us. ✓ I teach mathematics for four classes. In each of this classes, we have almost 20 students and I am meant to teach, give class work, home work and Mark their notes everyday when I am always having 7 consecutive periods each working day. I must not fail to mark their notes. How can I do this when there's no space for me to mark on the timetable? 7 Periods in a row.... Also, I have the highest workload in the entire sch. I have 28 teaching periods in a week. I'm tired Nairalanders. Help me out. Dear Moderators, pls help me link up the first Post with this one and move it to the front Page pls. I'm sorry for Posting it here. I feel it would get your attention quicker here. Thanks and God bless 1 Like |

You got no wisdom from all the advice given to you in your first post, so you had to post the same problem again? What do you want us to do? Keep advising you? I can see why you are in the dilemma you are in. 8 Likes |

Opanka44: Let the students exchange books and mark...they may just be passing through school and school is not passing through them. After all, what do they need to be the president of Nigeria? Pay attention to only those that came to learn. You too, use your Saturdays to create content on YOUTUBE and other places where you can earn money...I hate it when young intelligent people's self-esteem is battered by idiots. 1 Like |

Opanka44: These are all lessons to build you for future endeavours. If you are fortuned to own a school in future, don't repeat all these lapses. Also, try and learn German and apply for vocational training in Germany so you can leave the teaching job for them. Or try and apply for teaching jobs in Vietnam, do an online TEFL course for free, authenticate your school qualification if you have a bsc or bed and start applying so you can leave Nigeria for the greedy senseless capitalists who don't know how to treat workers right 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Opanka44: I sabi ya main problem.. U are angry cos your employer won’t allow you flog an innocent child… That’s what education shud be like.. Flogging of students should be prohibited in every school, because It doesn’t add any value to the child as seen in Nigeria today.. The flogging by teachers has not made the future of the students better in any way.. Nigerian Teachers should only teach and not go beyond that.. No students need their uneducated discipline.. After all the teachers will not employ the students or give money to start a business.. Oga if students insult you, call an aside and teach him how to talk… Na small poking Dey worry them.. Be the bigger man.. I will also suggest you quit this private sch teaching and find ya potential, skillls, or you can open a YouTube, etc channel, then teach what you teach in class room dia. 3 Likes |

Any mad man can flog a child, Op impact knowledge on those kids…Enable them discover their talent.. No teacher has ever flogged Elon Musk, yet he better than all the Nigerian students flogged by teachers.. I know I will say is cos he is white, based in USA, rich kid etc. I am glad u know some of the recipes of success.. Flogging is not part of them |

LikeAking: Ok I understand your point but if I may ask, Did you ever insult your teachers? What will ever make a learner to insult their teachers? What on earth? Can your baby of four years insult you let alone a child of 15years? 1 Like |

Opanka44: It’s very bad on the side of the kids.. They are poorly trained and behave like their parents.. Some of their parents are just the average class working parents. Children of such backgrounds are always proud and nasty.. They have that may father has the biggest plantation mentality.. Call the child and explain things to them, make them know it’s wrong… It will be well, I pray you get a beta job.. 1 Like |
