[quote=Anonymous]Came over from the APS side to this thread to see what the chatter was. A FCPS employee made a very hysterical post about this in AEM.

Let me start out with my disclaimer: my mother and mother in law are lifelong retired teachers. I heard over the years and continue to hear based on their continued connections about how tough things are in the education field. I think schools and teachers are under resourced and underpaid.

Now that we’ve established that, let me say that I work for the fed government. Paid less than the private sector but work in humanitarian programming and am passionate about the work and its impact on vulnerable populations. Do I get fake phishing emails? Yes! Do they sometimes offer cruises or other enticing things? Yes!

What was my ten years of service gift? A pin that was smaller than a quarter. But you’re not going to see me blowing up the internet whining about how I’m SO under appreciated and work extra hours year round on some real crazy stuff and how volatile and insane the whiplash can feel when administrations change and political appointees can be real idiots. And that’s saying it nicely.

Listen, it’s called work. And that’s why they have to pay you to be there.

This lady on AEM seems relatively desperate and unhinged. If you’re going to get your panties in a bunch over this you’ve got some real first world problems. [/quote]
