[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Contract time? Personal time? Other white-collar professionals in office or sales jobs work during “personal” time all the time! You give teachers a really bad and lazy name when you talk like that. [/quote]

The point is that teachers work well beyond their contract hours, despite all of the people who claim that they work "9-3" and have "3 months of vacation time".  If it were really that easy then you wouldn't have a teacher shortage all across the country.[/quote]

+1 and just wait 'til all those women aged 55+ start retiring[/quote]

Here's just one article (WAPO), but there are plenty more that share info on the shortage of teachers.

Whatever - they've been wailing about a nursing shortage for a decade now. And yet, the hospitals and care centers keep running.

What are you do when you have a labor shortage? Either you loosen up qualifications, bringing people from other countries or work your existing Force overtime (or in the case of teachers you come by and classes so you end up with larger class sizes)[/quote]
