The virus won.

No, once again your fear won

My fear caused 100 kids/families to get sick, and caused other concerned families to pull out too?

I had no idea that I was so powerful 🤷🏽‍♂️

I’m just giving you facts from my district/school (conservative area too). It sounds like you are frustrated because it goes against your beliefs. Sorry, pal.

Yes. You and the scared families in your district let fear of a slightly more dangerous flu scare you from a real education this past year. So a kid got sick? Send him home for the 10 day period and let everyone else move on with their life. If you haven’t told your union rep that you want to be back 100% virus or no virus, you are the problem, buddy

Fair, no complaining when people move to Texas and Florida and vote for Biden's 3rd term though.

Well buddy, the large success academy charter school network in NYC is still fully remote. Should the parents of these charter school kids blame the union? Oh they are not unionized- management decided that the kids should be on line.

Some share buildings with unionized public schools that are in session.

Why do you insist on comparing apples and oranges. My remarks have been on teachers who have unions. Try to keep up

The LRC gods sent me to combat your misinformation. But keep sitting in your basement with a mask on coward.

I have been back full time all year. Just teaching in a full class of kids like normal. When I see all this liberal BS all over the country it drives me nuts.

Most of the US is operating normally

No, you're blaming unions for school closings and I'm giving you examples of school closings that are not because of teacher unions and unionized schools that are open. Yes apples and oranges which is why we can't imply that teachers and unions are monolithic. If you're not happy with your local district complain and try to change it.

You’re talking in circles and completely ignoring information I’ve shared with you (because you disagree with it).

I’m sorry you have to live with your thoughts - it seems like you’re an unhappy person 🤷🏽‍♂️

I’m sorry straight English seems circular to you. My statements have been very clear. You and others with your mindset are scared of a virus that has little chance of harming you. Despite a year of lockdowns and now vaccinations, many of you still live in fear of this virus. This has led to a severe decline in the quality of education.

I am unhappy when I see kids and families suffer because others don’t want to do their job.

Well seeing as how places like Chicago are still not back to full in person learning, I have to say you are wrong. Who negotiated the current arrangement? The unions

Yeah, it’s fair to say teacher unions suck

Soft. I thought America was built on being tough. So you gotta put a mask on when you are in public to protect others, suck it up butter cup. Never ceases to amaze me how conservatives LOVE to complain. Quit your whining and man the bleep up.

America was built on freedom, personal responsibility, and a healthy suspicion of government. So when the government tells me I have to wear a certain article of clothing to participate in society, it’s worth fighting. You continue to hide from a moderately worse flu disease

Ohio is a rare case where we have a Republican governor acting blue.

Maybe it varies by school district, but I know some in Central Ohio start off at 47k out of college in big suburban districts. UA, Hilliard, Dublin, Westerville, Worthington. Those are the schools you teach at and can put in 30 years in, rising from teacher to admin and having a great life and being able to raise a family and go on vacation for.

Teachers with BA+15 (union step scales) are making tons more, and even BA+30 even more than that.

Teachers with MA+15 and admins are even more than above.

I do think in some schools teachers are underpaid (Catholic schools, rural schools) so I don't disagree with you in some areas they are underpaid.

Working in the mortgage industry, on the other hand--those people make crap $ (processing/setup/quality control), unless you are an LO and you are good at sales.
