And don’t get me started in the NYC teachers. They earn six figures for babysitting unruly kids.
The cops in my town get lots of overtime due to always never enough.So they re making closer to 100K.

But their overtime pay is used in pension calculations so they are getting 100+$ pensions.

Oh the irony. You can work from home. Teachers can't.

That is why something needs to change. These are our kids being heavily indoctrinated and brainwashed. Now is a good time for a shake-up and for parents to get involved.

Can you provide a specific example of when you saw a teacher providing woke or SJW indoctrination in the classroom?

Someone actually thinks that most teachers make 75k+ a year. If you think that then your opinion on anything education is null and void.

No - they simply do not. Again for the 5th or 6th time. Please backup your statements with FACTS provided by state run websites. You will not be able to do so.

So If we can go to work so can you. so get off your lazy A$$ drinking pina coladas on the beach and do your job.....you bums!!!
Another juvenile thread started by a Trumper, right winger/conservative. I'm shocked!!!

There is less risk, not "little risk" of catching covid from children under the age of 10. Nice try. You can and will catch it if you are exposed to these children on a daily basis. It's also been reported that those ages 10-19 are much more likely to transmit the virus than older adults. There are many schools that cater to both age groups, so whether one group is more or less likely to transmit the virus, in this scenario, is irrelevant because eventually you'll get it from someone.

That's why I asked the question "Do you work from home?" even though I already knew the answer. Gotta wonder how much education some of the posters here have.

We've got two or three in here who seem to think MOST TEACHERS make close to 6 figures. That statement is LAUGHABLE at best.
