Anger Management Support Group

Anger management commonly refers to therapeutic techniques by which someone with excessive or uncontrollable anger can control or reduce their emotions. Typical examples include the use of deep breathing and meditation as a means to relaxation. Psychologists recommend a balanced approach, which both controls the emotion and allows it to express itself in a healthy way.

Sick of cleaning up other people's mess at work..

I am a Special Ed teacher with colleagues on my team. Recently one of my colleagues conviently decided he "had an accident" and has to take medical time off. Convient that this happened right before all the kids come back to building. He is full of shit. He was unhappy last year teaching sped. This year basically he didn't help his co-teacher all this year in math, lied to my department chair, and just decided to up and leave with multiple IEP's uncompleted, leave me and my teammates to clean up mess and teach and cover his classes while we have our own to teach. So today I see him post something on his Facebook feed that says, "In need of some suggestions for books to read now that I have time on my hands." I blew up in anger this was at the end of the day and I left school so upset. I am sick of cleaning up after him..Now he's just gonna stroll in with everything done for him. I just want to say I am done with all of it!!!

Does the school not require Dr.'s notes and medical records in order for someone to take time off after an accident? It seems like it'd be pretty easy to prove if he actually is injured and needs time off or if he's just jacking around.

OlderCPer to my knowledge he has not submitted paperwork yet. This person really didn't want to come back this year. He was burnt out before the shutdown last year. I think he just really reached a point of shutdown especially since we have to go back to the building. I will say the end of last year and this year was the hardest teaching I have ever done emotionally. However, I have a job to do.. My kids at school depend on me and for him to do this and just decide it's time for an extended vacation... it makes me angry. He screwed the rest of the Special Ed team over with his bullshit.
