I teach, which is the main part of my job, but I am also the programmer at my school, which means that I make the teachers' schedules, the students' schedules, examine data, process report card grades and transcripts, etc. And, well, I hate it. I started doing it because no one was doing it, and we needed someone, and I was good at it, and the principal, who was in charge of the schedule then, was not. But I've got a new principal, and she does not value my opinion or the position at all. And if I'm not going to be listening to about the things I am an expert in (such as what sort of schedules we can have), then I don't know why we should do it.

Are you sure this is even your job? I mean, I haven't heard of people being hired as both a teacher and a system administrator at a middle school.

I have two moods: singleminded and absentminded.
Can you just say "I took this on because we needed a stopgap, and that was X years ago. I am burning out with both of these positions"?

Willis, it seems like every other time you post, I need to look up a word that's in the OED or Urban Dictionary but not both.

Well, I mean, the problem of "if I don't do it, no one will," is still relevant. As a school we don't have the money to hire someone separate to do it. At least, not without firing one of my fellow teachers.

I'm confused. Aren't all of those essential processes?
