They're not striking, they are collectively calling in sick to work. The Superintendants are requiring teachers calling in sick to have medical excuses.

I hope they deunionize your asses too.

You don't work at a public school, do you?

Inductive reasoning? Do pornstars get a premium for this?

I dont see any of you guys trying to teach.

Teaching is a low value activity barely distinguishable from babysitting in the vast majority of cases.

So then people who say they care about education are full of hot air.

Funny that I became aware of that from This American Life on NPR years ago.

Do you really think we wouldn't be much worse off putting kids in daycares instead of school?

**KrazyHorse** · February 18, 2011, 01:50

I care about education in the sense that I believe it would be possible to get results as good or marginally better with far lower cost, if we had a less dysfunctional system (one in which public school teachers were subject to the same level of danger of firing as private sector employees and students had better exit options)

Yes, because I have posters on my wall that tally your progress up the porn ladder.
