[quote=Anonymous]My mom and aunt were teachers, most of my parents friends growing up were teachers, and I know many teachers my own age. I have never heard of a teacher taking planned vacation during the school year. Most teachers get 1 or 2 personal days and use them for things like going to an out of town wedding or attending their own kid's event at another school. Usually the rule is that you can't take a personal day the day before or after a holiday and if you are sick before or after a holiday, you need a Dr's note. I am thankful teachers arrive at their post every day, on time. I arrive at my job within a 30 min window, take lunch when I choose based on my schedule that day, and take Dr appointments close to my office during the day and just take leave or stay late. I can't imagine being on a rigid schedule like a teacher - how nursing teachers pump I have no idea. I am thankful for all they do and 2 personal days seems very reasonable. [/quote]
