I can't undo what was agreed to before I got here, but I surely don't have to agree to perpetuating the practice of essentially working twice as many as hours as I get paid for. Think of this vote as a rare chance at a "line-item" veto.
Remember.....this isn't a choice between getting paid 4.5 hours for 9 hours in FLL verses getting paid 5 hours for 9 hours of "distance work." Distance learning is going to happen. The iPads Appearantly have been bought already. Now it's just a matter of negotiating how much we're going to get paid for it. Personally, I think we're not over-reaching by asking to get 9 hours of pay for 9 hours of work.
