Life, fair or not?

Today one of my colleagues complained with me about her disappointment at work. She got upset these days for having to teach Information Technology instead of Maths. The problem is that she majored Maths in Uni and now the management board arrange her SEVEN classes of IT while only ONE class of Math (among 24 in all). She’s really resented being treated unfairly. The reason is also unreasonable, that is, her rate of quality on Students’ points the previous year didn’t meet the requirement (more than 50%). The fact is, from years to years, students who are adapted to my school have low entrance grades. How can a student with O.5 mark in Maths (half of a point) pass all of the test s and exams with the result of 5?

You guys can simply think of a school with nearly half of the ethnic poor students, some of whom live more than 40km away. Apart from, most of the students failed the exam in other better high schools in the district then are sent to mine. We all are under pressure :-(

At some time in life, you feel life too rough with full of unfairness and you put down your arm, crying in pain hopelessly. Then, it is not until you get over the tough time that you realize what you suffered is so small and you needn’t have moaned.

I said, to my colleague, “Yes, life is unfair, coz I see you smile after the stuff while not many can do as you, so never be sad and wonder why LIFE IS NOT FAIR ALWAYS. In fact, it’s fair, somehow at this or that point of time in your life”

  •  Sniper Venom Never mind. I appreciate your view, anyway.

  •  Sniper Venom I get it. 

    We should look down to see the ones who suffer the worse things than what we resist and put ourselves in their shoes. Then, who is the happiest in the world? No one. Everyone has things to face. Fight or give up and lie on pain. Which choice?

  •  Sniper Venom I'm confused...

  • Sniper Venom yeah, it's not fair, ever. If it's fair, we'll never try. And if there exists fair, there's nothing called LIFE :-) Just fight. 

    Thanks for your statement ~_~

  •  worth2live Exactly we are, small but strong! We have a pairs of powerful hands along with clever mind and  steely will. Thanks God for creating such human beings.

    Thanks so much for your wonderful comment ***

  •  Sima I vote for your opinion. All people feel uncomfortable when things don't go right, just each one has his/her own way of showing up: some may complain or blame, some keep inside and act out, others cry or smile. We, in the end, attempt to conquer and overcome.Those all make our life. <3 Thanks, lovely!

  •  noaslpls  Your idea cannot be more right! Just at times a girl who has just started a job consider it a shock. She'll be toughen then :-)Thanks for sharing <3

  • To dear Anele

    Her staff of the same subject encouraged her that way, but she seems to need time to get used to the change.

    BTW, from my view, not only teachers but also people taking other professions should know how to deal with the circumstance well. Thanks for your time and good point!


     

  • I guess teaching is similar with other works too. I've known many colleagues who studied and mastered in different subjects had to work in different fields altogether. The working field is very competitive field and people has to adopt and adapt with the changes of demand. 

  •  Lynne I’m thankful for you nice comment.

    I agree with your point of not judging someone via his/her job. Teaching is commonly called “noble job” but not the teachers are perfect ones. We are human being, normal and full of instinct, so we experience ups and downs many times to taste the life. I sympathize with my colleague coz I’m now and then in trouble at work. I, however, experience that education environment has problems itself, especially in my country. Anyway, it’s good for all of us to be challenged and to get chance to know others field like her. She’s alright this time, I bet.
