The thread for flipping shits (and tables)

Like christ some of these questions she wants me to provide 2-3 "model answers" for? These would be fantastic questions to get the kids to y'know come up with answers of their own but you wouldn't actually have time/the assedness to check their answers so you'd just rather they remember some phrases you vetted earlier

"How about doing volunteer work after school?" Well it'd be really fun exercise for students to come up with elaborate excuses but nah I can already see her surreptitiously deleting "c) no thank you" as a model answer and sticking with "a) that sounds great." and "b) Sorry, but I'm busy." I couldn't even add caveats like "Not today, but I'm free ____" because it's ~too complicated~

The more options i provide on a supplementary worksheet, the longer it's going to take to cover everything in class and the less time students will have to come up with their own interesting shit, if they don't get bored and aim to complete the activity expeditiously by choosing the closest pre-written answer anyway. I can't win and should honestly be concerned with how defeated and pessimistic I feel about work being anything approximating emotionally fulfilling, like I'm sad and perhaps more accurately scared to be leaving in a year from a job I'd rather bitch out than try seek out silver linings for?
