Teacher Ayia, this is an article well written. Congratulations. As you are very much aware, in Ghana, teachers are not that much respected, paid correctly and sometimes not even put at the right promotional scale. When it comes to education, Ghanaian politicians do not have their priorities right. As at now, some schools do not even have chalk to write with. What a shame to the Ghana that I knew. Hmmm, teachers will continue to leave the field for greener pastures. Others will not do their best under such circumstances. The Russians have a maxim they used during the time of the Soviet Union which goes like this: "They pretend to pay us and we also pretend to work." That is why there is that much apathy about teachers' work in Ghana. If you happen to go back to Ghana to work, I promise you that you will not want to teach at SDA training college. Have a happy teachers' day in Toronto. I shall also have mine in Atlanta.

A high school English teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. She also tells them that there will be no excuse for failing to show up, except for serious injury, illness, or a death in the student's immediate family. A smart-ass jock in the back of the room pipes up and asks the teacher out loud, "What about extreme sexual exhaustion?" The entire class has all it can do keep from breaking up, being barely able to stifle its laughter and snickering. When silence is restored, the teacher smiles sympathetically at the student, shakes her head, and sweetly says, "You can write with your other hand then."

Three couples marry and stay at the same hotel for their honeymoons, where they are taken care of by Dave the bellboy.
The first man married a nurse. Dave thinks to himself, "Nurses are known to be hot to trot."
The second man married a telephone operator. Dave thinks to himself, "Telephone operators have sexy voices."
The third man married a school teacher. Dave thinks to himself, "Poor guy, teachers are frigid."
The next morning, Dave reports to work and gets a room service call from the nurse's husband. He sourly says, "Don't ever marry a nurse. All I heard last night was 'You're not sanitary, you're not sanitary.'"
Then, the telephone operator's husband calls and sourly says, "Don't ever marry a telephone operator. All I heard last night was 'Your three minutes are up, your three minutes are up.'"
Later that afternoon, the teacher's husband calls and happily says, "When you marry, be sure to marry a school teacher. All I heard last night was 'We are going to do this over and over until we get right.'"

A very well written article. The problem in teachers' union is that, leaders of the union care less about the plight of teachers. THEY ONLY SHARE CROCODILE TEARS WHEN TEACHERS CRY OUT FOR BETTER CONDITIONS OF SERVICE. It is time TEACHERS STOOD UP TO TAKE THEIR DESTINY INTO THEIR OWN HANDS, AND THE EARLIER THEY DO THAT THE BETTER.
