[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, how dare non-Christians celebrate their holidays. Terrible. [/quote]

Lifelong celebrator of the Christmas thing here...I would gladly give up the two week long vacation for the holidays. If we want to celebrate, we'll do it on our own time. [b]These kids are never in school[/b].[/quote]

They literally receive the same amount of instructional hours as they have. The calendar traded other days for these holidays. Stop the pearl clutching.

Thank you! The kids ARE in school for the required amount of days.

And, from a teacher’s perspective, I catch up with all my work on these “days off.” I can’t imagine how I would survive if I didn’t get the occasional week day to grade and plan. I guess I’d just take more sick days to catch up. [/quote]

Occasional?  Like every week.  You are very entitled.  Most of us with real jobs actually work 5 days every week ALL YEAR…[/quote]

Teacher PP here.

Well, I usually work 7 days a week thanks to how much I have to bring home. When I get a weekday “off,” that means I may get to see my own family on a Saturday or Sunday. Is that the same at your job?

Why don’t you teach, if you think we have it so great? We have an opening in my department as I type. Please apply![/quote]
