But, geez, it's stupid-ass facebook, a teacher should be able to express her/his happiness about a day off.

More than one teacher posted how happy they are that they get another day off and how they better not add days at the end of the school. Meanwhile, I have no childcare and my work is always open so I am stuck taking vacation now. As my kids say "not fair!"
I understand how hard teachers work but really this seems inappropriate to me.
The solution to this problem is to block all that stuff from your Facebook.

I know! Can you imagine folks in the Greatest Generation belly-aching like this during the WWII years? There's a reason we always think of them as more mature - they were.
Yes, I can. Because they did. The reason we always think of them as more mature is because they are our grandparents.

I bet a lot of people in a lot of professions posted gleefully if they got off work, not just teachers. Let it be. Yo would probably do the same if your place of work closed.

The facebook friending is common at our school with certain cliques of parents. I think its wrong also but that's another story. My kid's teacher is friends with 3 or 4 parents in the current class.

This is why I never "Facebook friend" any of the parents of my students until the kids are no longer my students.

There is no reason for parents and students to be friends with the teachers on FB.
Unless it is a FB group - like the Green Team @ xyz MS or something like that.
