Haha, that is cute. I totally know what you mean about the present thing. Especially on behalf of my wife. She often gets tons of gifts from the teachers in her building, but she only gets something for a handful of them that she is particularly close with. She always feels bad about the people who give her gifts that she didn't get anything for. Some people just like doing that. It's great that they appreciate her. I seldom get gifts from anyone. I'm the guy that says no all the time... :P We are actually dealing with some major issues with our special ed people right now. It's quite the nightmare. I won't bore you with it here though.
Oh man I’m sorry they don’t appreciate you more. I always go out of my way to thank everyone who keeps the ship running. A school is a team effort. Kids can’t get what they need if there’s no tech, or if the school isn’t safe and clean if the offices are disorganized nightmares. So thanks for what you do to empower kids to learn!!!!
Thanks, I am a bit of an introvert, so I probably don't make it easy for them to really appreciate me. Plus, all they do is complain most the time, so it isn't fun being in the same room with them. The way they talk about some of those kids in the teachers lounge is disgusting. It makes you wonder why they are even teachers.
