Exactly. This is the part that I really don't get from teacher's perspectives. Like somehow the rest of us can lose our jobs and be struggling but yet they expect to just be catered to? Because somehow their situations are more unique than the rest of ours? So they deserve to continue to be paid even if they can't actually return to work? I don't really get this need for special treatment. [/quote]

I am 100% behind the idea that kids must be back in school in the fall - but "Risk your health or risk your job; your choice" is not good for [i]anybody[/i].[/quote]

Is it ideal? No. But businesses need to go on regardless and if your job doesn't lend itself to working remotely (and teaching for the public school system should fit in that category) why do teachers/other school staff seem to get a special pass when  the rest of us have had to take unpaid leaves of absence, get paid off etc...? My point is that just because they may work for the public school system doesn't mean they should get to have a free pass of just getting paid for doing minimal/no work for an extended period of time.

Also, if someone's health is that fragile they shouldn't be working in the school environment anyway. [/quote]
