I am very proud of my time working at a Wendy’s, thirty years ago...
“Those who can...do. Those who can’t...become teachers.”
I certainly can't judge their motive but I can guess that these bottom-feeders cannot GET any other work except social work or as public school teachers, and at least teaching provides them with job security and union protection.
And I don't mean to insult teachers in general; my kids attend private elementary and high schools, and while our teachers are not perfect, the deadwood lasts nary a year. All of them serve on one-year contracts so firing is not necessary.
In fact, many of the teachers at my kids' school are retired from other walks of life. They make fabulous teachers because they definitely are not in it for the money or job protection.

Seems that everyone has several chins. And fingers like sausages. And is really pissed. Bet they are all God fearing womyn.
Too bad there were no black women in there so someone could call me a racist.
Then again, isn't it odd there aren't any black women in that picture?

Talk about feeding at the public trough . . .
...and to think that something like 75% of FReepers subject their kids to those animals (I know, they smile when you’re paying attention to them).
Some of us have taken alternative approaches, and have given up the new SUV, Camper, Boat, Big House, etc...
There are different types of ugly.
It’s not so much how they look physically. Different tastes and all that...
But they look almost demonic - like they could kill for their cause. Teaching?
No, their cause is totalitarianism expressed through their Union.
