Teachers' Strikes?

[jevans]

If this cat is that triggered I'd say the money line on "NO" is roughly -200 or so. It sounds like he's been on he losing end of that bottom of the box of wine conversation more than once.

I knew some dork would ask or say I was triggered. Today you’re that dork. Congrats

Did my use of the word triggered, trigger you once again??

Your reply reaked of whining Democrat...

Don't get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for teachers, firemen, police, military, et al.....but every single one of them made that decision of their own free will, knowing good and well what the pay was for their respective positions and what the short comings of the job are/were. If they all dislike their job positions they are free to find something else to do... police, firemen, and teachers leave the job every day to start new ventures. Some folks just need to have "prayer meeting", as my grandaddy used to call it, one night and sit down some of these folks and say the time has come to make a decision to either accept the job for what it was or step out of the comfort zone and find something else to do but the time for all the fussing and complaining has come to an end.

The solution to these problems likes at the end of the voting ballot....quit building Taj Mahal schools and buying the run down, useless pieces of property that someone(school board or town/county council member usually) in town owns at ridiculously inflated prices....but until then the jobs are what the jobs are...they are welcome to come out to the real world and see just how good they may have it.

Reread my original post. I never complained about what my wife gets paid. She has 16 years invested at this point. The lack of discipline at the schools is what gets to her some days. She’s not unhappy with her job. She enjoys her job most days. She invests in her students and does the best she can do with them. She doesn’t have the desire to do anything else, so for her to find something else to do ain’t happening. She deals with it. And for the record, I agree with every last thing you said in your last paragraph.
