Sorry, been married to one for 34 years. I've always been embarrassed by her level of effort and commitment and lack of pay vs my pay forever. And don't give me the crap about 3 months off, that was always taken up by inservice courses or advanced degree classes. While I sat and watched sitcoms and read the newspaper, she graded papers.
This governor's my way or highway is just as poor as Nancy Pelosi's with the health care issue. The guy is a thug.......with no balls. If he had balls, he would have included the cops and firefighters, he didn't.

I fully support the governors of the states that are finally doing something about their budgets. Frankly, I don't think they are going far enough. Obama needs to follow suit on the federal level.

In the end it doesn't matter if teachers or any other state worker is paid enough for what they do. Their employer is going broke. When the airlines were failing, we took pay/benefit cuts. It sucked and it was painful. But we had to do it. States are going broke. They cannot afford the compensation package of state workers. There is no choice but to cut that compensation.

Well said my brotha Ferd. Miss seeing your smiling face on the commute. Hope you are enjoying your new one.
School teachers "unrealistic compensation"?

Ferd <------an Arizona Goldwater Republican, so feel free to leave out the Fox talking points in your response

Hey FTB,
As our resident DC-9 historian, what do you make of this little gem?

Maybe Hefner saw what we all see in the DC9*...burning beacon of raw sexuality.

What if Delta had forced us to take paycuts, which we accepted, but they also wanted us to get rid of ALPA, and only be able to NEGOTIATE for raises UP TO the rate of inflation every year from here on out?
It's not about the budgets.

Not to be a downer, but when is the last time anyone of us got any good news about our respective airlines?
And I mean good news, not just "no bad news" or "works out to be par" news.
I mean "hot dog, this is great, and things are going to really get going now!" news.

I don't think government workers should have the right to collectively bargain.
