I was overworked and lacked resources in my last employment but I couldn't use that excuse not to obey whatever additional duties imposed on me.

Sorry, Maggy, it's not that I don't sympathise, but teachers are not the only employees who are overstretched. This is the case in many occupations, particularly in the public services.

I'm just glad I am now retired!

Labour would only add to the bureaucracy, so that isn't a solution.
