This week on Teachers Off Duty, the crew gets real (and hilarious) about the reasons why teachers quit—and let's just say… nothing is off the table.

From nightmare travel stories and tour announcements to the very real struggles happening inside classrooms, this conversation dives into burnout, lack of support, toxic work environments, and the emotional toll of teaching. The hosts unpack everything from unsupportive admin and difficult parent interactions to classroom management challenges and the overwhelming pressure placed on new teachers.

But it's not all chaos. This episode also highlights what actually helps teachers stay: mentorship, strong systems, emotional intelligence, and having someone in your corner who gets it.

If you've ever thought about quitting, already left the profession, or are just trying to survive the school year… this one is for you.
