Thank you for having Gates at the Seattle convention so he can ridicule the teaching position.<br /><br />Mulgrew thank you for not supporting Thompson when we had a chance of getting BloomKlein out. Thank you for allowing Bloomberg to be elected so that contract negotiation can go through an impasse, which was planned! Thank you for accepting Gates money to screw us in the METS initiative of the new teachers' evaluation process because Randi and you are out to screw the members. Since the test will be harder for students to pass (which I find highly suspicious since now we have a new teachers evaluation) more teachers will be fired within 60 days of receiving two ineffective observation ratings from incompetent principals who have never stepped foot in a classroom.<br /><br />I think I've given enough f***ing thanks to those who will receive two pension checks upon their retirement while the majority of us will lose their only one pension.<br /><br />God I'm stick to my stomach with the abuse and the politics!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477669229969550311.post-47803533958143574932010-07-20T10:17:35.475-04:002010-07-20T10:17:35.475-04:00You are correct and teachers will suffer no tenure...You are correct and teachers will suffer no tenure, firings, however principals like the one at the Columbia Middle School where the little girl drowned will be kept in place to provide whatever numbers Bloomberg and Klein want.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5477669229969550311.post-82305867688855627442010-07-20T06:58:03.938-04:002010-07-20T06:58:03.938-04:00Every word you wrote: true.

I just finished it this weekend. It is hilarious... very satirical, but also scathing and horrifying. I'm on a personal mission that as many educators read it as possible!! I think it's a good weapon in the stand against all this ridiculous testing.California Teachernoreply@blogger.com
