I used to know a lot of teachers. They all retired in their early to mid 50s at full pay and full free medical. Oregon pension system is broke ass as a result. Now it's way broke ass as tax revenue is collapsing.

My dad retired in Oregon, he definitely did not get free medical.

Gasbag likes alternative facts.

I’m never gonna listen to another teacher piss and moan about not getting paid enough ever again.

I hear it all the time. Have to buy their own supplies. Don't get paid time off, work 60-80 hours weeks. It's endless and tiring. #heros

Look @HHusky I respect the heck out of the profession. I’m still tight with a few of my HS teachers (the great ones are underpaid).

It’s just been a tough month in the private sector and I’m blowing off steam

Which is about the same % as people dying of covid.

I'm not going to speak for him - but I'm fairly certain a large percentage of @Pitchfork51 's sexual life revolves around buying cocktails for poor teachers.

Don't ruin the guy's closing style.

I'm lucky my company exists in a space that is still thriving off of this. Unless of course we just go under because we're a small business dependent upon larger companies not taking a massive hit.

Don't be lame. Fuck teachers. Even the good ones. Fuck em.

is not that the same as saying 'fuck socialism'? Unless they don't realize that is what they are teaching

Like a 30 year PERS employee? Like in the late 1990s when my kids teachers retired? Was a teacher? Other than that go see HH and get your hug and a ribbon. You can do the same for the dazzler.

The Throbber's two dads and biological mom were educators. They took it seriously and didn't get paid shit. More often than not, we were having breakfast for dinner by the time the end of the month rolled around.

To this day, I still have former students of my dad who come up to me with tears in their eyes talking about his impact on their respective lives. He died a very wealthy man, in my book. My mom continued to work into her 70's in an administrative/office capacity - she hated the unions with a passion. They kept the lowlife, non performing teachers on the payroll - just moved them around instead of moving them out.

They are rolling in their graves at the state of public education these days.
