Oh, my school was a mid-range school, apparently. There is a DECILE rating of schools... Socio-economic based... Comes up middle range. Not most deprived, at all. So the stats... Would be conservative (leaving out private schools) but probably about right. About half my teachers would have had criminal convictions. And given how many taps on the wrist / no convictions there are...
There would likely be even more taps on the wrist / no convictions issued to private school teachers. Perhaps. I'm not entirely clear on whether our courts are more dismissive of people because of damage to their reputation / social standing or whether our courts are more dismissive of people because of 'equity concerns'. So very hard to say...
You can... Basically do what you like. So long as you have a herd. That's the thing... The herd...
What is wrong with me?
Where are my people?
I think the problem came with the whole quit smoking thing... After my 6 month review when I got ripped into... When no constructive criticism was given. I needed someone to take me aside and explain to me that I needed to work on areas that my supervisers group was interested in / and / or apply the work being done by him and his group to a different area that they might not be initially interested in. It seems obvious to me now that I know. But it wasn't obvious to me before. I couldn't see it. Nobody explained it. Why didn't anybody explain it? Perhaps they saw an opportunity to get ahead in a competitive field... I expect that is it.
What will become of me?
