stan teachers unions - Lemmy Cafe
and reminder that the opportunity cost of a few days’ strike is far outweighed
by teachers being overworked to the bone without adequate compensation or
psychological support, resulting in the best teachers weeding themselves out of
the field altogether. anti-union sentiment is hurting kids.
My dad has told me multiple times “teachers unions are the worst thing that has happened to teachers.”
Someone very close to me is a teacher and I don’t think I’ll be able to stand hearing him say it again.
It’s a good deal if you live till ninety and retire at 65. The one in my family is rolling along at her same payrate each month (adjusted COLA) as she had when she left, and since inflation has been under control, generally, it’s like her pay was effectively doubled. Every month she gets a Direct Deposit for the amount she would have got if she were still working, 25 years of that and she only worked for 20… UNIONS!
