You have people on here complaining about having to sacrifice going to the.beach and yet you dare to say that most are comfortable with making "sacrifices". The hell they are.

I know you are just pulling my crank but this is part of it I want to address as well: I don't expect the education system to be prepared for a pandemic. I don't think its unreasonable to be prepared for e-learning. That's not just on teachers. We have rules and regs contemplating e- learning scenarios so obviously someone is thinking about the topic. How is it not part of at least one day a year's worth of teacher institute?

I didn't expect seamless. I expected that every employee would know what to do in the case of a situation, just like they would for a tornado. Everyone seems just so caught off guard and that is true on both the public and private side. Then I see how relatively seamless high school has been and I wonder where is the disconnect.

Does "what you do" save 45-50 children a year between 5-$10,000 a year on their college tuition?

A service that is a yearly service though not compensated for it? Well I do and I am the only person in the building that does it so I guess that makes me 'special"

And you're a hypocrite. You don't know a damn thing about being a man by the way. You are a coattail riding poster guy that speaks on a ton of shit that you know nothing about.
There have been people bitching and moaning about this stuff for the better part of 7 weeks and you haven't said a damn thing.

You don't have a damn clue about what teachers go through. Just an ignorant dude disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing. Like always. Find a new handle.

For which he will be compensated. And I'm sure he double taxes like they all do if it's an off hour. And he can bite me with the "investments" in equipment that he passes off as "sacrifices". He is full of shit but then I already knew that.


One the biggest hypocrites in a sea of the shit on here.

Check him out as he tries to pass an investment off as a "sacrifice". Supreme bullshit artist.


That's not a sacrifice. If you aren't clear on what it happens to be then grab a dictionary.

I think every district is struggling with equity issues. Don't tell WFR I said that. Whatever preparation the teachers may have doesn't take into account the extraordinary number of poor families who simply don't have the basics needed to participate.

I'm on a weekly zoom meeting that CPS leadership, community members, teachers and parents are on. A teacher mentioned that a student reached out to her because they were hungry. A member of leadership mentioned Title IX and I completely lost my shit. MANY don't understand the needs of the people they represent. That makes it difficult to implement any effective program.

A month into remote learning CPS loaned out chromebooks to disadvantaged students. They quickly learned that MANY didn't work and that some families didn't have internet access and couldn't get it. How do you participate without basic items?

Could some teachers be doing a better job? Absolutely! I think most are doing the best with the best they can with the fucked up hand they've been dealt.

I was surprised at how many people at my current job take all their pay during the school year instead of spreading out over 26 pay checks. I had to do 21 pay checks one year because of when I signed my contract at a new job and I did not like having to budget for the following summer. I know the money is the same but it is peace of mind.

It is. Even teachers have to make adjustments or get creative. It's frustrating for parents because things are changing/evolving quickly and your child has to adjust on the fly.

your grand sacrifice is some unpaid overtime and school supplies. Its not a sacrifice. Its what the job is sometimes.
You have an extraordinary high opinion of yourself.

LTG is definitely "Special." Nobody will deny that.

No I don't. I just don't have to lie in order to find an equivalence like you do. There are people in this that have sacrificed a lot more than I have.
You invested in your business and considered it a sacrifice. You don't have a clue

_________________

You completely missed the point on that one.
I'm not saying its a sacrifice at all. In fact I'm saying the precise opposite.

How can someone as "smart" as you completely miss the point so many times?

Look at the whiner in chief. Guess good buddy Darko had no problem with your lack of Tee time access did he Fraternization?

Wonder why but then he again why would he being the credible poster that he is?

And how can someone as savvy as you continue to argue after making an ass out of yourself? There is no equivalence. Stop trying to find one.
