    Anyone who says attitude doesn’t require effort has never had to deal with people when they are exhausted.

    Same shitty thing as a teacher saying your bus being cancelled or late isn’t an excuse for coming late to class.

      After the pandemic I think a lot of teachers changed our lines. The reality is that people have a lot of reasons to be late or absent. It’s the people who are chronically late who have issues, not because the tardy count is important, but because they didn’t learn the material that was covered when they weren’t in class.

      All of which is to say, it doesn’t matter if you have a good excuse or a bad excuse. It matters if you’re learning what you’re supposed to learn.

      Well, it bloody hell is! Me not being bothered to get to school in time is also an excuse! It might not be a good excuse, but that wasn’t the question

    management has absolutely no clue what effort is. holding their desks down is the extent of it

    I think this is a misquote. I’ve seen thing like this before and it’s supposed to say “things that don’t require TALENT”

      Yes, I’ve seen that one. This might be either a parody, or some idiot who tried to recreate it

    Uhhhh being on time is the worst! I want to wake up naturally and go to bed whenever the hell I feel like! I can get the same amount of work done 11am to 7pm rather than 9 to 5.

        Classrooms? I thought this was up in an office, damn they’re really trying to brainwash kids to hate themselves early wherever that is eh :-(

        Our schools aren’t perfect, but I never saw anything remotely like that here, any messaging was always very positive and supportive and stuff.

          Nope. Unironically. There was a big poster of this in one of my classes last year run by a teacher who definitely fully believed it

    Effort doesn’t require effort if I can afford to pay you to stfu and do it because you’re already homeless and will be fat soon if you don’t get to be able to make your own choices about what you’ll eat. Let me be worried about where all this money goes and…and…uh…
