Wechat business uses social tools to realize the rapid dissemination of commodity information, and sells commodities on social media such as friends circle and Weibo. This kind of social relationship supported by emotion makes it easier for people to buy on the basis of mutual trust. However, it is inappropriate for teachers to engage in WeChat business after work.
According to the "Regulations on Prohibiting Teachers from Accepting Gifts from Students and Parents in Violation of Regulations" issued by the Ministry of Education, it is strictly forbidden for teachers to ask for or accept gifts, securities and payment vouchers from students and parents in any way, and it is strictly forbidden to seek illegitimate interests by taking advantage of their positions. Although it is not clear in the regulations that teachers cannot do WeChat business, doing WeChat business is suspected of taking advantage of their position to seek benefits. For some time, in many schools, teachers and parents often have an unequal relationship. Some parents hope that teachers can pay more attention to their children's learning and give them more opportunities to speak in class. Therefore, giving gifts to teachers through various festivals has become a "hidden rule", and the education management department has made great efforts to clean it up. In this case, it is undoubtedly a more "reasonable" and hidden way for parents to buy goods released or sold by teachers in the circle of friends. Helping teachers "do business" on the grounds of "just needing this kind of goods" and hoping that teachers can take care of their children more, this kind of WeChat business is no longer a simple buying and selling relationship, but creates convenient conditions for power rent-seeking. In the long run, it will affect the dignity of teachers and create unfairness.
Ye Shengtao, an educator, once said that the whole job of an educator is to be a teacher. Teachers must always regulate their behavior, take their own words as teachers and their own actions as examples. However, if you engage in WeChat business in your spare time, it will not only take time to select goods, purchase goods and publicize them, but also take up a lot of time and energy for teachers to answer customers' questions on social platforms. Even the fragmentation time may affect the work. Judging from the particularity of teachers' profession, the profit-oriented WeChat merchant image is not in harmony with the professional image of teachers whose vocation is to educate people.
As far as the teacher management system is concerned, the public teachers in the establishment belong to the staff of public institutions and are national public officials. According to the Relevant Regulations and Interpretation on Prohibiting Public Officials from Engaging in Profit-making Activities, although the carrier of doing business with WeChat has changed, it is still a commercial act to make money by doing business. Public officials should stay at a respectful distance from others and stay away automatically.
In the period of social transformation, life pressure and social impetuousness are common problems faced by everyone. Teachers' demand for part-time jobs is more because they lack sufficient compensation mechanism in terms of treatment. This requires government departments to solve the problem of teachers' treatment, effectively improve teachers' wages and living conditions, and let teachers devote themselves to teaching.
We always hope that education will become a pure land and that teachers can devote themselves to teaching and educating people.
