It's your job!

Picture this-
Your signing up for a new email address.
You fill in your name, your age and other information.
You get to a field where it asks you for an occupation.
You click on the scroll bar and roll down to STUDENT.

Hm. I wonder what that means...
It means that YOUR JOB is to be a student. So the next time you think about how you'd rather be doing something else remember this is your job. You may not be getting paid but, its still required that you show up. In the very near future you could have a sucky job you hate. (one you DO get paid for) You might not get paid well, or maybe your boss is mean. What ever it is you still have to go. Its the same deal with school. You HAVE to show up. There isn't another option. This is the one job you cannot quit.
So, even if you decide to fail in school the only one your hurting is you. Do you think your teacher really cares whether or not you fail? Some do care, but don't really have the time to do much about it. And many have learned that its almost useless to try and motivate a teen who is failing. Its also not really their problem if you fail because you don't do the work. And no matter what you say, they are definitely are not failing you on purpose. They may or may not like you but that has nothing to do with your grade. Its all about the work you do or don't do. The teacher cannot actually fail you if you do the work. Oh and by the way, if you fail too much you have to stay back. You have to stay at the school you hate for another year. Good work einstien.
