[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread gets started every year around budget time when some teachers' organization thinks teachers should have gotten a higher raise.  We get it - we'd love bigger raises in our jobs, too - but it is SO SO predictable.  [/quote]

i don't think you do get it.

you are not a teacher.

this thread probably has more to do about the end of the year and who is staying, leaving, retiring, or taking a leave of absence.

it has nothing to do with the budget. [/quote]

I agree! This has nothing to do with budgets and everything to do with working conditions.

I would take better conditions over more pay. I’d love to know what a mere 40 hour week feels like. I’ll take that over a $20K raise.[/quote]

You’re free to leave at any time.[/quote]

I’m the PP. I made an extremely reasonable comment. Nowhere did I say I want to quit. I merely said better working conditions would be nice.

I don’t think telling teachers to quit over such benign comments is in anybody’s best interest. Trust me - you don’t want me to quit. I’m the teacher you’re calling the office to get your kid switched to. [/quote]

I also didn’t read your post as a complaint. When I read the earlier post where someone asked if anyone complains as much as teachers I thought, “This thread doesn’t have many complaints”. That always seems to happen though. Someone asks a question, a teacher responds with info or an opinion, and then someone replies with, “Well, you can quit. Stop complaining”. [/quote]

If someone is very unhappy with working conditions and pay they can leave. That’s a fact. [/quote]

Or they can just stop doing all the BS....which many teachers have and parents don't like that. If parents don't like it they can homeschool or go private.[/quote]

The people who live here will just move if they can afford it if the schools decline. No idea why so much Hate but I'd rather live in West Virginia and home school rather than sending my kids to teachers with so much Hate.[/quote]

So now I have “hate” simply because I wrote I would appreciate a better work/life balance?
