Well this is s stupid argument. Business teachers could’ve studied economics so running a business is pointless and you have nfl and nba coaches built like a pound cake with multiple championships.
Boomer/Facebook ass post
Would you say it was a… Shitpost?
Well this is s stupid argument.
Also, routinely untrue. Exceedingly common for Business School teachers to have side hustles. Hell, teaching often IS the side hustle.

It’s weird to think knowing how to train and lead a team requires someone to be at peak physical fitness, especially when they’ve been doing it for upwards of 40 years.
Mickey, you love to stir the pot but this one is extra stupid. You’re talking shit about teachers and that’s too far. Teachers are already a fiscal punching bag and now here you are making them feel bad. Fuck off you troglodyte.
Says someone uploading AI slop.
Stop posting AI slop
This is the same kind of smug stupidity that enables shit movements like MAGA. Science bad! Education bad! Vaccines bad! Teachers bad!
Amen.
Deleted my original response to this…post because it was somewhat emotional. Anyway, here goes.
It is fine and good to ask questions. Any decent teacher wants you to ask clarifying questions. Pretending otherwise is really dishonest.
Yea, you will find good and bad teachers. I suspect it’s much harder to find good teachers in areas where the profession has been vilified by people/posts like these, where books and ideas are being banned, incomes are hilariously low, and thoughts are being outright policed. In those places you’ve almost certainly seen a brain drain.
Ultimately a lot of us could be making money elsewhere, but we like what we do.
I would be more wary of someone vilifying the accumulation of knowledge and those who want to share it.
Boomer meme.
should someone who gets “emotional” over a shit post on some social media site actually be teaching kids?
Teaching is being ridiculously underpaid and used as a punching bag.
Parents don’t want to parent - you call them and say little Timmy beat the shit out of a classmate today - it’s your fault. Neveah is failing because she’s refused to even lift up a pencil the entire year - it’s your fault. Don’t forget, you need to spend an extra several hours after your “contract time” to do all of the meaningless bullshit that admin gives you - lesson plans that have to follow a format and will never get read, referrals where you have to have months of documentation of a student cussing you out and breaking things during class, so that you usually are working 60 hours a week at minimum.
My first year teaching was $2200/month, in 2019. I would get to work at 6 am - often had “duty” where I had to search students bags like a fucking mall cop. I usually had to stay until 6 pm cleaning. I repaired my own cabinets, bought my own lab supplies (how much do you think enough vinegar and baking soda to run 6 class periods of labs cost? Going to spend $50/week so that chemistry class isn’t just lectures and notes?)
So yeah, it’s shitty to shit on teachers. Teachers get treated like dogshit in American society, and there’s no need to contribute to that because you’re mad Ms. Brooks got onto you for passing notes in class twenty years ago.
Those who can’t, teach
That’s something really ignorant people say. Teaching is about managing and forming personal relationships with large, diverse groups, way more than it’s about the subject of the class. If you’ve ever had a class taught by an alternative certification monkey who won’t shut up about their 15 years of industry experience, you know what I’m talking about.
the phrase doesn’t mean all teachers are incapable. it means that people who can’t do a thing have a tendency to teach it instead as a way to remain involved
similar to a “not all x are y, but all y are x” situation
It’s a way to minimize educators and you know it lol
it can be used that way, yes. it doesn’t exclusively mean that.
Can you give an example of it being used for different reasons?
self-deprecatingly
You can only use it in a self-deprecating manner if you are yourself an educator, in which case, you’re still minimizing educators.
Troll
Thank you.
I guess my 16 years of experience in education made me ignorant towards educators? Lol I stand by my statement. I take it you’re particularly biased, either as an educator yourself, or very close to one.
Holy shit, this user is extremely intelligent
And those amazing football coaches would get trounced if they tried to sub in to play
Especially at a high school level (since they don’t teach PE in college) their job is to teach you the fundamentals like knowing the difference between macroeconomics and microeconomics.
Yeah, but those coaches are almost always former players.
Playing at the college or high school level is not even remotely comparable to playing at the professional level it’s like comparing a manager to a ceo
A quick google search of the best coaches brings up
Bill belichick (never played pro) Vince Lombaradi (made it to semi pro but not pro) Don Shula (did actually play for 7 years) Bill Walsh (never played pro) Paul brown (never played pro)
So 1/5 played pro yet they are able to coach profesional athletes, it’s almost like it’s a different skill set
No, I get that! But I’d bet those guys at least played high school ball.
And yes, different skills sets! People on here constantly bag on CEOs for not being able to do their low-level job. Well. No? They should have a clue though.
If nfl is owning a business then high school ball is being a cashier.
Claiming that a high school business teacher is unqualified because they don’t own a business is like an nfl coach being unqualified because they can’t play at a pro level.
This is also laughable for high school where the teacher gets paid trash and needs to teach only the most basic level of info
Fat isn’t always fat. My dad was a professional gymnastic coach and we was fat looking. That didn’t mean he couldn’t lift you up and soon you around like a helicopter. He did it for a living lol
You just mixed being strong with being fat. They are separate things.
You can be lean yet strong.
Just saying
I’m saying being strong and looking fat can go hand in hand. Yes you can be lean and strong.
Let me say it a bit slower for you.
My dad was a coach. If you saw him on the street you’d say he looked fat. He was in great shape and was well qualified to be a coach.
This meme missed the point that look fat and be strong and in shape. You can be more than qualified as a gym teacher and look fat.
You just mixed being strong with being fat.
Strong people can look fat. Powerlifters, strongmen, shot putters, football linemen, and other athletes where really high strength are important tend to carry a lot of body fat, too.
Fat doesn’t mean strong, but very strong very often means “fat” looking.
You just mixed being strong with being fat.
How much do you think a 300 lb person can lift? I guarantee it’s at least 300 lbs.
Same as all thoses YT videos
