I can't work for the education system anymore
I am going broke now and looking to change my major and go back to school, making the past few years of my life practically a waste and the outlook for the next few years of my life exponentially harder...
But...
I can't do it anymore. School after school that I have worked at and I feel an increasing level of pity for students and their parents. No school that I have worked at ISN'T pulling illegal and unethical shit. I have worked everywhere from the lowest income areas to the highest income in my county which is a hell of a leap in this area and both areas require me to keep my mouth shut about the illegal shit that they are doing.
Anyone who tries to change this system in any manner gets demoted, fired or struck down in some other manner. It is a lose-lose situation for everyone. Honestly, I think I am just venting at this point and I'll probably get flamed for not FIGHTING to change the system myself, man!
Whenever I bring it up in public forum, I either get that or the insufferable political bullshit "Well if it wasn't for Trump...!" fuck off with it. I've been dealing with this long before the concept of Trump being in the white house was a serious thing. Among all of the faults held by all of us, I also hold the people who turn to THAT argument to blame. Passing the blame off on Trump to shirk any other possibility of invoking change will continue to contribute to the problem.
TL;DR
Is it normal for me to quit working in the public education system because I can't handle the lawbreaking and the criminal lack of ethics that I consistently encounter in the field?
