[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The obsession with teachers is insane. Honestly, give it a rest.[/quote]

I agree. They should stop complaining! Work a full year like the rest of us. Oh, and we will need you to show up on minor holidays, too.

I work in healthcare and work every holiday, even Thanksgiving and Christmas (alternating each year).[/quote]

You are not making any sense. We are not taking those holidays off. They are holidays that are created by the national government that FCPS chooses to observe. It has 100% nothing to do with teacher work ethic.

It sounds like you're the one who's annoyed with having to work Thanksgiving and Christmas.

The federal, state, and local government could decide on a full school year, but they haven't. If they do, I'm sure plenty of teachers will work it because they'll enjoy having the extra money. But, once again, not something that teachers control. You are placing the blame on the wrong party.[/quote]

I’m sorry. When you chose to become a teacher as a career, were you unaware it was 10 months pay for 10 months of work?  Choosing a career that has 10 month contracts is as something within your control. Quit playing he victim amd on your career choices. Jeez. [/quote]

I do t complain about the money. I knew about that before I went into it. 
It’s the horrible hours that I complain about. 
Yes, I heard teachers complain about the heavy workload prior to my decision to become a teacher, but I honestly thought they were exaggerating. I would gladly trade my 10 month work schedule in favor of working year round and only working 40-50 hours a week. [/quote]
