Teachers are some of the hardest workers out there, with jobs that start early in the morning and often end in the evening, even if school gets out at 3PM. Many teachers dedicate lots of their free time to lesson planning, grading papers, helping students, or watching other teachers' classes. Just think about how many of your high school teachers stayed late to coach a sports team or lead a club or work with their students for hours to prepare them for standardized tests.
This teacher shared a story that happened as a result of a super simple request: they just wanted to duck out of their classroom 15 minutes early. They even had a perfectly good reason! Their principal's response is so unfortunate, and commenters let the OP know that there are better options out there for her than a toxic boss who doesn't care about her one bit.
