1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Regardless of how you feel about how much teachers should

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: get paid, it's definitely not an easy job, grading homework

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,720
Speaker 1: and tests late into the night, dealing with all types

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: of kids and their little, unpredictable personalities, and wondering who

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: threw the stale cafeteria biscuit across the room.

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 2: Was it wailing again?

7
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: Probably?

8
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,959
Speaker 2: Well today we call one teacher who's dealing with all

9
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: of those issues and, according to her husband, the most

10
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: overbearing extra group of parents you could possibly imagine.

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 3: Oh boy o.

12
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 2: Still she's managed to keep her cool the entire way

13
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 2: until now. Maybe Ken Brooke push her over the edge.

14
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 2: I know she's always wanted to go after the teachers

15
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: of the world, and finally this is her chance.

16
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 4: All my children's teachers are still crying.

17
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: That's good.

18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 2: Let's make another one cry in your phone?

19
00:00:54,360 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 3: Tap right now's phone taps on the twenties. Oh okay,

20
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 3: So if I just put in oh are you there?

21
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sorry. I was just filling out my MENSA

22
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 4: renewal statement.

23
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: Excuse me?

24
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 4: Is this miss Ashley?

25
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: Hi? Yes, it is. Who's this right?

26
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 4: This is Beverly to say, my daughter Mattie is in

27
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,280

Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, I'm Maddie. Oh she's so cute. I don't

00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 3: think we've met, have we?

30
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 4: No, we haven't. I've decided not to attend curriculum night

31
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 4: or any teacher meetings.

32
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 3: Okay, well, I mean that's absolutely your choice. Is there

33
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 3: something I can do to help you?

34
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 4: Actually there is. So I've noticed you have a field

35
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 4: trip scheduled for the fish hatchery coming up.

36
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, there is. Were you wanting to be a chaperone

37
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: on that or you know, I'm.

38
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 4: Just thinking like, what are the kids going to get

39
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 4: out of that? I mean outside of preparing sushi?

40
00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 3: Am I right? I mean there's a lot of Yeah,

41
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 3: there's a lot that goes into the fish hatchery and

42
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 3: how they maintain that wildlife.

43
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 4: Not really not compared to other important things in life.

44
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 3: Well, the first graders do really enjoy this trip. They

45
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: look forward to it every year. So we're gonna we're

46
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: gonna have a great time.

47
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 4: Maybe the subpart groups that you've had in years past.

48
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 4: Would we alway suggest an alternative?

49
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 3: Well, we can't really switch our plans at this point

50
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,399
Speaker 3: in the year because it is approved by the school administration.

51
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 4: God as you can, So how about you bring the

52
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 4: children to my house to your house. Yes, So that

53
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 4: way I could actually homeschool them and for one day

54
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 4: out of the school year they may learn something. Oh wow, well,

55
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 4: I mean I okay, okay, I'm sorry, You're welcome.

56
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,119
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for the offer. Yeah. I applaud

57
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 3: the initiative, but we're not gonna be able to do that.

58
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 3: The school district does need to follow certain guidelines, and

59
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 3: that's what we're going to be doing guidelines.

60
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 4: That's funny, a fun fact. Did you know I had

61
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: my first grade daughter take an IQ test before the

62
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 4: school year?

63
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 3: I did not know.

64
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 4: Also yesterday, hmm, turns out she went down in points

65
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 4: since being in your class.

66
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 3: Well, those tests are are a little subjective based on

67
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 3: who's administrating them.

68
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 4: And at that's like three syllables. Do you think you're

69
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 4: using that correctly?

70
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 3: I hearing a bit of a condescending tone, and to

71
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: be honest, I'm not entirely sure where that's coming from.

72
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: So could you maybe help me figure that out.

73
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to understand why my first grade daughter

74
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 4: has gotten significantly dumber since the beginning to fall.

75
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 3: Right. Yeah, I'm not interested in having this conversation anymore.

76
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: If there's any other issues you have with me being

77
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 3: Maddie's instructor, You're more than welcome to take that up

78
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 3: with the administration. But I think that this conversation is

79
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 3: no longer productive.

80
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 4: Oh that's fine. You want to quit. No, you're to

81
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 4: have that type of attitude.

82
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: No, I'm not quitting. I just know that my time

83
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 3: is valuable.

84
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 4: Oh, your time's valuable. Do you know what Maddie did

85
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 4: with her valuable time? Yeah, she designed and printed an

86
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 4: extension to our kitchen.

87
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 3: That's the exceptional congratulating for Christmas.

88
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 4: Put it to work.

89
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: That's great. I'm so glad that she's doing that.

90
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 4: But it is great. She's actually been asked to teach

91
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 4: architecture at a local community college. I believe they haven't

92
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 4: been asked to do that, have you.

93
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: I really haven't because I focus on first graders.

94
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 4: So and you're jealous of mine.

95
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 3: You think I'm jealous of your first grade daughter because

96
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 3: she printed an extension of your kitchen.

97
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 4: Well, I do know. You asked the class to just

98
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 4: draw a house last week, So that okayute?

99
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, super cute.

100
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 4: My daughter's actually creating a house. There's a difference.

101
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 3: I know, it's not cute. It's this conversation. So thank

114
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 4: Uh huh, yeah, so I just thought i'd set the

115
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 4: bar a little higher for those parents.

116
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 3: Oh you sure? Did you read what I mean?

117
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 4: But are you doing calculus later on this semester.

118
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 3: Or no, No, I'm not.

119
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 4: We were hoping for the Pythagorean theorem. Wow, maybe that's geometry.

120
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 4: I can't remember.

121
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 3: Broke in Jeffrey's phone taps on the Swamise
