Someone still has to coordinate with Aramark. Data-processing specialist and print-center technician both sound like fancy names for secretarial roles. You're honestly saying schools need fewer counselors in what has been generally regarded as the worst generation for child mental health in years?

> Someone still has to coordinate with Aramark As a full-time position? Aramark literally ran the lunch counters. I could see it being a district-level position, though it would be better positioned as a general procurement role. > Data-processing specialist and print-center technician both sound like fancy names for secretarial roles I agree. I was suspicious when I didn't see a secretary for each of the assistant principals listed. > You're honestly saying schools need fewer counselors in what has been generally regarded as the worst generation for child mental health in years? I am. Unless the counselors are constantly doing actual therapy I'm deeply sceptical you need that many for a student body of that size. The fact that they're assigned based on the first letter of your last name versus anything remotely thematic or behaviour based seems to emphasise that hypothesis, for me at least. (When I went to the school, there were bullshit jobs everywhere. One of the counselors didn't deign to meet with students. Her role was "strategic" or some nonsense.)

  > One of the counselors didn't deign to meet with students. Why would she? That'd distract her from the actually important work of fabricating the reports that make her looking amazingly competent. My mom is a retired teacher and her main complaint during the last 10-15 years of work was that with all the bullshit paperwork they're required to fill, the teachers literally don't have the time to just plain interact with the students. You want to make an odd, unscheduled extracurricular event? Waste a small pile of paper before organizing it, arguing for how amazing it will be for the students' education, and the an even larger pile of paper afterwards, bluntly telling just how amazing it all worked out and checked some tick boxes the upper management cares about.

    An institution of education is a weapon against a society from actually existing. Technology has eaten our world and is shitting us out in real time.

Bring food same time everyday? Here's a weekly food menu, repeat weekly? Whew, that's a lot of work. Email me if you need me. I'll be in Hawaii. Counselors aren't qualified to deal with mental illness.

  you can tell this is someone who hasn't been in an operations role^ and sure, counselors aren't qualified to deal with mental illness but what exactly do you believe is a child's path to qualified help if their parents are unengaged or the source of the problems?
