If we are connected properly on Twitter or our other networks we shouldn't need a hashtag to let others know if we had a rough day. In fact, I would highly caution people to use such a hashtag. People from my district and parents follow me on Twitter and I would never give then any reason to Pernille Ripphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08664101868856118868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005114591173102634.post-57897234929830893862011-08-01T19:41:08.156-04:002011-08-01T19:41:08.156-04:00Thankyou Nick.

My idea, which I will try to explain better above, was to have people just say they are having a rough day, use the tag and then people would connect through email, Skype, etc. <br /><br />I would never encourage people to bad mouth their school, students, etc. on Twitter for the world to see. That's why I I created the tag to so Nick Provenzanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11315889912014481563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005114591173102634.post-1056459912026397552011-08-01T06:58:04.412-04:002011-08-01T06:58:04.412-04:00Hi Nick.

As a new teacher, who's been through some VERY rough times in my job, I really must second Molly's caution. <br /><br />I have shared my struggles with people on Twitter, and provided support to others going through tough times - but I've done it using private Direct Messages. <br /><br />Venting in public can have unintended, profoundly negative impacts.

Vents aren't always phrased in the most diplomatic of ways, and those who have taken to the Internet to vent about their job in education (often in relation to the people they deal with - their students, fellow teachers, administrators, or parents of students) have faced reprimands and worse.
