What does it mean to be a cog in the educational system? This compilation of stories from a long and distinguished career in education will help those entering the field-or still in it-to understand the many pitfalls, heartbreaks, and limitations they'll face. But it will also be eye-opening for anyone with a stake in the world of education: parents, administrators, consultants, teachers, and just about anyone who hopes to live in a society where the education system actually serves those it's supposed to.

Organized into ten lively chapters, it tackles the hard questions such as: getting hired, sexual harassment, racism towards teachers and students, paternalism, toxic positivity, dealing with crazy coworkers, and self-care. It speaks to the gaps, hidden agendas, and rules of the public education system from the point of view of a committed, long-time educator.
