Teachers in Job Action . Whine Someplace else

At this point, even if the Board was willing to give POB teachers a more "generous" contract or even able to, I say you should get nothing...BECAUSE YOU have brought your dispute...not the Board....to the classroom and to the children. Mr Rosenfeld and his underlings should be embarassed of themselves. Mr Rosenfeld talks about other districts pay. So what? This district still pays in the median range compared to other LI districts. Just not the top. Oh well. Leave. Go there. I would of been happy to see the teachers get an even more than fair contract before they brought their dispute to the classroom. Not any more. The teachers would eventually get a contract, and with back pay. There is no reason for their actions other than greed and power on the behalf of the Union. I am a union worker and have gone up to 3 years without a contract, letting arbitrators do their job while I did mine day in and day out without whining or any type of job action. And that's what my union told us to do. And eventually, my contract was settled fairly. Yes, job action. That is what the teachers of this district are doing. I think the whole lot should be fired and get some younger teachers here for less that want do their job and be happy to be here. You know what...lets go for it and really try to cut our taxes. It will be an even greater savings to the district and we can get rid of these teachers that are whining and making such a negative impact on our children. There are many families in Plainview living off of Unemployment Insurance (no, I am not one) while this Union puts their hand out for more. A real class act to teach children.
