[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]@10:07, interesting ramblings. :) The only flaw to your activity is paid days off. Teachers & school staff only work 194 days and their salary is based on 194 days. Any "traditional" work days (e.g. for a person that doesn't work at a school would normally be expected to work) that a teacher doesn't work b/c kids are not in school (think particular days of winter break, spring break, the  day before Thanksgiving, etc.) are not paid. Take a teacher's salary, divide it by 194, and that's the daily rate. If the non-school days were paid vacation days, then their salary would be X% higher.

The only paid days "off" are sick/personal leave (and snow days, when they occur), of which a teacher gets X amount per year. 12 month employees, like principals, get 26 or so days of annual leave, b/c their contracts are longer (the 12 month thing)--they work many more days in their contract and get paid accordingly.

I worked in the DOD system for some years.  Some of the teachers requested "unemployment" when they went home for the summer.  Apparently, this is-or was-done in some states.  Ironic, since health insurance, etc., still continued.  (And, when overseas, housing allowance continued.)  I guess some unions in some states negotiated contracts in that manner so that teachers could receive unemployment benefits.
