I didn’t have the chance to write this yesterday but I wanted to share this with you all.
As you know, I work in a school as a Teaching Assistant so break and lunchtimes are spent in the staffroom liaising with the teachers.
Yesterday lunchtime, I was sat with a group of colleagues and I was passively listening to the friendly banter between one of our Teaching Assistants and an English teacher. What the English teacher said next floored me…
She said to the TA, “What are you inferring?”
I was stunned! I did say she is an English teacher, didn’t I? Well, she should have known her question should have been, “What are you implying?” It was she, the English teacher who was ‘inferring’ as the listener and the TA who was ‘implying’ as the speaker, during their conversation.
Did I say anything? Well, no. I feel that to be corrected in front of many people can come across as incredibly condescending and arrogant and I’d had enough of that malarkey from a former friend of mine who is a classic know-it-all.
