People calling teachers (who buy their own supplies, work hundreds of hours of unpaid overtime, and work extra jobs because they are so underpaid) selfish because they are worried about going back to school during a pandemic is peak irony in 2020.

We teach students about boundaries, but few boundaries are given to teachers.Teachers can’t be expected to be available 24/7 for meetings, calls, emails etc. even if they’re teaching remotely. This type of expectations shows a lack of concern for their mental & emotional health.
