Latest Letter From the PCT is a Joke

Why continually point out that teachers are responsible for 20+ children? In every job a person has responsibilities whether it be kids or a staff of two or a hundred who depend on them for a job well done and their families well being. I'm sorry but in no other industry have I seen such childish behavior for the job that you yourself choose. Personally, the latest letter from the union was a joke. A substitute teacher making 130.58 for a days work is darn good, and a nurse making 250-300 a day, also darn good. The latest school letter from the PCT says parents may feel victimized by property tax burdens. The truth is we feel victimized by the PCT. Lets also point out that you keep referring to babysitter rates. A babysitter does not get benefits, or career growth, they have no protection in an economy going bust, they have no retirement, pension, no job security, and for the most part all their jobs are temporary and if used full time a weekly wage is most likely given that very few could live on, not an hourly wage. Stop all the comparisons to other districts, other teachers, other industries, and even to a poor teenager earning some cash.
