They should just… pay teachers what they’re worth, treat them with repsect, and let them do their jobs.

Getting rid of librarians is just insane.

Graft is so inconvenient when it has to be parceled out in small packages.

I’m not certified, but I’ve done corporate and professional training. Teaching kids should be easier than a lot of the adults I’ve worked with.

Why is an unstable jackass who is going to not only brandish but shoot inside a store over an argument even allowed anywhere near a weapon?

conditional_soup , in [Texas Tribune] “We are dying”: Houston workers protest new state law removing water break requirements

I think of stuff like this when people say that the point is cruelty. Honestly, how much more work can anyone believe that they’re going to squeeze out of heat exhausted workers by denying shade and water breaks? It doesn’t make sense as a productivity measure, but some dip shit manager is still going to make people do it just to flex on them.

TacoEvent OP ,

Exactly. It’s 10 minutes. What kind of asshole do you have to be to demand it?

refurbishedrefurbisher ,

The same type of asshole who believes in “time theft”
