>Ridgewood Teacher :Watch out what you wish for
Watch out what you wish for, general public! I am a teacher. You all keep saying that we should join the public sector if we are so unhappy. If we did, that would create a glut in the marketplace on jobs (an ever bigger one than there is now) and we’d be competing with YOU for your jobs. Want that? I don’t see any of you in the private sector beating down our doors to come into the trenches and teach today’s distracted youth.
I work hard at my job every day. NO, I am not complaining. I am proud and stating a fact. I am asked EVERY year to do more and more. Now I am liable to report each and every bullying instance I hear/see/hear tell of, etc. I can get sued if I don’t and something happens. More paperwork, more distraction from doing my job, which is to teach.
