[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In what other profession in this country do you get paid 100% for not doing you job AND (here is the kicker) throw children under the bus to sweeten you deal?  Teaching with Union protection.

None.

This is America.  Teachers - you CHOSE your jobs.  And you are entitled to quit.

So do it.  Quit.  [/quote]

Teachers are teaching, and unlike a lot of remote workers they are actually doing their job remotely versus just farting around on message boards[/quote]
You know what is incredibly ineffective? Telemedicine. Medicine is the most hands on career you could choose. I hear very little outrage by the refusal of medical professionals to show up to work and do the jobs THEY chose, in an environment that is literally designed for disease control. It continues even now, when people insist “everyone else” is back to work. Many doctors are not seeing patients in person, or you have to first schedule (and pay for) a telemedicine appointment so they can evaluate if you “need” to be seen. It’s a scam. People with chronic medical conditions have had severely reduced access to their medical teams since March, and much suffering and death can be attributed to this. It’s really shameful that a profession basking in so many accolades is populated by so many money hungry cowards. [/quote]

huh? There was a period of time where it was hard to be seen in person, but all doctors offices I know of are in person now. Dentist, OBGYN, dermatologist, radiologist for mammogram, physical therapists. Even my psychologist is moving towards in-patient sessions with patients who want it. One Medical is open for in-person visits and has been for months. [/quote]

Quite a few of my doctors are still doing telehealth visits. Our dermatologists (mine and DS), my therapist, etc. They are not all open. My GYN just told me she is closing after Thanksgiving. [/quote]
