Here in California they screw the kids and the state for their own gain. It’s almost akin to be a traitor to work in these unions.
I will say that in some jobs, it’s very hard not to be a union members, so that needs to be said also.
Same up here - the public school unions are the worst. They are, however, loaded with money, and are powerful beyond belief.
I also loathe the union mentality. I say that nobody should be able to teach until they have first spent at least 10 years in the REAL world work force.
