I so appreciate your thoughts. I don't know the full story, and am sad to read such inflammatory remarks. It is my opinion that those people who feel so very compelled to sit on high horses, are a bit nasty or mean spirited. This is a situation which is serious, and involves fraud. That should be enough to keep these blood sucking people happy, at least until they find another way to occupy themselves.

Society, our local communities, taxpayers and special interest groups all need to put kids first, as do parents and teachers as they work together to support kids. It is common knowledge that teachers are known for putting kids first. Sadly, there are those people who actually have the nerve to say, "Well you chose to teach, so you knew you shouldn't expect to be well paid". Might such ignorant comments suggest that society holds the misguided opinion that we are the ONLY ones who are required to put kids first at our own expense? If you truly knew how hard teachers work because they do care and do put kids first, I suspect you might never feel so way off base.

In our public school system, the BSD has embraced "The Virtues Project", a program which teaches people (adults and children) about character development . We speak about virtues such as honor, caring, tact, understanding, diligence and respectfulness. After reading your post, I had to reflect on why character education is so important for our children. The Virtues Project is designed to help build children's characters, so that when they become adults they will be able to write articulate and respectful opinions. I trust that all caps tirades using words like "hens" and "morons" isn't being promoted by the private schools your children attend.

I want to thank you for your comments. While you express frustration and disagreement, I applaud your ability to do so in a respectful manner. I wish more people were able to communicate their views, pro or con, in such an articulate way. Your opinions will naturally be considered with a much greater degree of thoughtfulness. I respect your opinion on this strike and can easily understand your anger. In the short term, I also appreciate that you feel helpless to effect change. However, I wouldn't underestimate your power and encourage you to continue to voice your opinion!

Oh my. I believe the company's name is Microsoft. Perhaps you've seen mention of it in the news. I do apologize for correcting you, but there really is only so much one can take, before feeling compelled to do so. I do trust this is no reflection upon WSU, but it does speak rather loudly about you. Fire them all? Well, there you may have a point. The BSD certainly may choose to do so. Still, I suspect instead you will find us on the picket lines tomorrow nonetheless. Should the BSD opt to hire replacements, I can find work elsewhere. However, I don't think Micro Soft is hiring, as it doesn't exist.
