It's bad out there for teachers and other school workers. Very bad.
Instead of making things better, the job itself looks like it's going to be stuffed with untrained scabs so number keeps going up.

That's a fair argument. I still think that it's work that deserves just compensation, benefits, and protection, especially because classrooms are hazard prone petri dishes WITHOUT covid.
It’s a right wing talking point in that it’s used to justify a lack of commensurate compensation and to delegitimize unions
But also :yea:
One of my first jobs was a long term sub position for a teacher who just handed out packets and played on Facebook all day. Apparently she used to be real involved and passionate with various committees in the district and burnt the fuck out after her divorce coupled with a bunch of initiatives losing funding at the same time.

Yeah I’ve heard a lot of stories like that, teachers who actually try their damndest to actually dedicate themselves to the kids but then after a could years of dealing with giant classrooms where a lot of the kids have mental health issues that are hard enough to deal with on a one on one setting, and just shitty funding and facilities. After a while they just go fuck it and have the kids watch some YouTube videos while they fuck off. It makes them feel like shit but honestly they just at the point they just can’t muster the will to care.
