Heartbroken

I just read a thread from teachers who are experiencing the worst part of teaching: being excluded. Folks shared stories of lunch dates made in front of them, being left out of plans, hearing of parties that were held within school for which only certain staff members were invited. It’s about being treated as though one doesn’t exist or matter.

Do I find solace in knowing that I am not the only one, or do I feel saddened by knowing that others are experiencing what I did on a regular basis?

Both.
