As districts across California prepare to welcome students back to classrooms after nearly a year of remote learning, school employees are seeking extra pay, safety measures and child care assistance to offset the challenges imposed by the coronavirus pandemic.

We farmers have been growing food during the pandemic for you teachers. The clerks at the stores have been servicing your needs. Everyone in society has been working through all of this. But aren’t you special. Don’t want to teach go find another career

Don’t want to teach go find another career.

Mickey Ds is hiring.

Go back to work five-days-a-week, quit, or be fired. It seems immoral for teachers to be sitting at home with full pay for a year, now want four-day workweeks, childcare, and more. For a change, put the kids first, teachers go back to work or be replaced.

And the same urgently needs to happen here in Nevada. If they do in California, Nevada will follow.

Lionized by their union(s) as tactic to win negotiations all too many union members apparently believe in the smoke being pumped up their backsides. It’s past time to take the source of the smoke out, spread the ashes, and do for our children what they will not.

Majority liberal and women.

What a great idea.

[Secret Agent Man]

My God how did the grocery store and big box stores manage to be so superior to gynocentric crying teachers?

I’m not necessarily,for any raises solely because “covid”, but if anyone should get a pay increase, its people who kept coming in doing their jobs.

With online teaching, they could be outsourced to India and the Philippines at a much cheaper price.
