I was making $24.5 - in a very expensive locale to live. A 3% increase was all that was available.

Of course, I didn’t have to belong to a union and parade around to get my raises.

Sorry, it’s not the teachers I resent .. it’s the unions who control them. The unions who DEMAND no accountability for more pay and less hours. Not a good plan.

Always had a job .. never had to belong to a union.

I’m glad you were able to get a 3% increase. I hope you’re able to keep up with inflation as it skyrockets over the next few years.

I hope the same for any employer or employee in America.

I went through the ultra-inflation years of Jimmy Carter and it isn’t pretty.

Obama is the author of it, and the teachers in Chicago almost inadvertently revealed his incompetence.
