I never thought I would say this but I wish the teachers
would just get it over with and go on strike.
I don't like how they are treating the students and parents at my kids’
school. I know they are unhappy with the
changes and rules being imposed on them but that does not make it ok to be
petty to the kids. The kids are not the enemy
and should not be treated as such. Fine
don’t do the extras, that is your right but don’t stop doing the job and start
treating the kids like crap. If you don’t
want to be there that much than go on strike now before anymore damage is done
to our children.
The vote was only last week and we can tell the difference in
how our children are being treated in and out of the class. Being rude to the parents is not going to
help you! If anything the people who
could be your allies and support your actions are the very people you are
pissing off. To be blunt I don’t have
much sympathy – you have a job – many people do not. Many other people have had to make cut backs
and changes to keep their jobs and still end up unemployed. You deal with children and need to remember
that how you treat them in your anger is going to stick with those kids long
after your anger is gone.
The funny part is that when I heard about the strike last
week I was supportive, I could understand why you want to strike. That is until teachers started to treat kids
like crap. Now I don’t care about the
teachers or what they want, I care about what they are doing to the kids. You don’t want to do your job, but still get
paid for it and spend your time bitching about the whole thing– fine, get in
the back of the line. There are people
without jobs, trying to feed their kids and keep a roof over their heads – they
don’t need your crap on top of that.
They would like a job, any job at this point. You want to belly ache about how hard your
jobs are, be glad you have one and a paycheque to go with it. Things are tight everywhere – don’t like it
go on strike and stop taking it out on our kids!
