[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since when did arriving to work and leaving on time become a bad thing? [/quote]

bad, bad teacher for not giving up a personal life to accommodate the system's "needs"

[/quote]

But everyone is saying it's not personal life--for many counties it's designated contracted work time for 1 hour or less 1 day a week, there's just some teacher flexibility on what day/time to do it.  It really isn't that bad of a deal.  [/quote]

No “everyone” is not saying that. Plenty of us are saying extra time is NOT built into our contract hours and we are NOT working extra hours for free. That can be because we want to spend time with our families or have other things to do (plenty of my colleagues work a second job tutoring after school FOR MONEY from paying clients) or, because we are regular normal people, because we are simply not interested in doing more work for no extra money. My contract says I’m free to go when the last bell rings and I am happy to abide by that. And no I don’t feel bad that I’m not willing to burn myself out or sacrifice my personal time or give away my professional expertise for free because I leave when the workday is over. [/quote]
