[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A few other threads said there will be a delay of the Nov. 9th opening so pulling it out here. Does anyone have more information? [/quote]

I was told by a union organizer that teachers will be striking this Monday. To protest the plan for going back in person. [/quote]

Your source is wrong. Also “union organizer” isn’t a title WTU uses. [/quote]

We cannot strike. It’s illegal. What’s supposedly planned is a sick out this Friday, Oct. 30. It was the subject of the WTU meeting this week. They want to take “strong collective action” if negotiations aren’t successful. I don’t know the exact number but a majority apparently voted in favor of the sick out. From hearsay it sounds like it could be more than one day if not effective. [/quote]

Aren't sick outs a contract violation? [/quote]

Not sure. Work stoppage is illegal, but we are entitled to take our sick leave so I’m not sure calling out sick would count. [/quote]

Is this definitely happening? Does anyone know when we would be told about this sick out? [/quote]

WTU members just voted for a mental health sick out on Monday, November 2.[/quote]

Only IF DCPS does not sign the MOA.  Which people are expecting them to sign in the am. [/quote]

[b]It’s important to note that the only remaining sticking point according to WTU is that teachers should have the right to say they won’t go back, no reason required.[/b] The chancellor has previously said he will not budge on this point. So who knows. [/quote]

that is absurd. bowser should fire them. [/quote]

+100. Could you imagine if doctors, nurses, bus drivers, doormen, mail delivery people, Amazon employees, post office employees, metro operators, grocery store workers, and heck, let’s throw in congressmen and national security advisors said this?! This is absolutely absurd.[/quote]
