Unionized teachers went into teaching because it was a ridiculously easy college major. They also wanted to get three months off per year and work at most 7 to 8 hours per day. I was a math and science teacher for four years, my fellow teachers were mostly lazy, entitled, and negative. They constantly complained and said horrible things about a lot of their students behind closed doors. None of them were scholars, and many of them seemed to be of below average intelligence. After four years I couldn’t stand the work environment anymore. I went back to college and sacrificed much to earn a bachelor’s and master’s degree in engineering. Best career decision I ever made.
3-2-1... what’s Adam Baenes’ connection to the teachers unions?
Fixed the misspelling...
Burnout? Being that lazy burns people out?
They could find another line of work. Problem solved.
It's gotten much worse since.
A few weeks ago, I was at a family reunion and was speaking to a relative who was in his senior year in high school. He asked me where I lived and I said Connecticut.
He literally did not know where Connecticut was and was als not aware it was a U.S. state.
The reunion was in Massachusetts and he graduates next week.
These are your public schools.
“Didn’t know we had a problem with soaring teachers.”
I see you flunked 8th grade grammar!
I see you flunked humor. Guess that’s what happens when your soaring teachers are burned out . . .
You’re in luck.
There is a chronic shortage of nearly all types of teachers in just about all locales.
Sign up and get yourself some of that ‘easy money’.

Number 5: Fire the lot of them and start over.
Problem solved at both ends. We get educators not indoctrinators and they get relief from burn out
Well, Osceola county Florida solution is to recruit teachers from South America
This is the number 1 reason.
It ain’t enough money for me by no stretch, but those creeps are still overpaid for what they do.
I notice there is no mention of allowing teachers to actually discipline students or parents being parents rather than their child’s friend. Out of control students who know there are no real consequences for their behavior help drive teachers out of the classroom.
Many of them take summer jobs, so their income is higher.
If they are stressed over kids.
Can you imagine what Doctors feel when they are operating on people.
Yet teachers feel they are more important than a Doctor.
They are teaching the mind.
That is the excuses I hear at my local School district.
And if you have a Master or higher you should not be teaching in public schools. You should be teaching college.
Yes I imagine coming up with all that constant left-wing indoctrination and the defending against the obvious questions that only a child could ask, Like “isn’t that really a boy”?. Well that could be very draining.
