Can someone redpill me on this? Teachers are going on strike in my State which is #49 in the country for education.

Huh, I'm curious too since they're chimping out at dysart

"I want to go into education for the kids, I know it's a low paying career but I don't care I wanna make a difference"
>5 years later
"Wow it's so unfair what I get paid, I had no idea what I was getting into"

Also Finland teaches are paid less on average

And they're like number 1 in education or somewhere around there

Thats not the problem. We know were gonna start low, we accepted that. Problem is, we were also promised raises. After 6 fucking years and still no raise. Whats bad too is that education funding has decreased.

I have an education background. I worked in a preschool (public first 5 program) and I got out because the pay was low. You went into a low paying job. Sorry you don't get a raise every 6 years for existing.

Tukeefag here. Don't fucking bitch about how dumb you/your kids are and how shitty you/they are doing in school, if you don't want to pay teachers. You wanna know why your/your kids' teachers are idiots? Because their job is Taco Bell tier. You get what you pay for.

yea here in tucson every school is shut down for the time being. Also, most teachers have that hashtag painted on their car windows and have it on shirts. No school tho so that's tight. (Yes i'm 18 fuck off cunts)

The idea of public employees going on strike is hilarious. Especially "teachers". If you do not like how much you make then by all means find different employment. These people will never get my sympathy.

So how is it that the best education system is in a country that on average pays teachers with 15 years experience less than the United States?

Lol yeah right faggot, go do your homework we assigned for the break
Yeah, but we were promised raises, thats why we complain. Not to mention we haven't received update classroom nessecities. 15 year old economics book for example, we need updated books at least. What we currently are asking for is to raise funding at least the levels of education funding we had a few years ago. Its not asking for much because even that was pretty below national averages but still substantial compared to what we have now.

Good to know people like you are teaching the youth with that vulgar tongue. That is if you are even a teacher.

How do teacher wages compare to other fields after you correct for the fact that they generally only work for 9 months out of the year?

AZ teachers get paid about $700.00 let week

not like I care anymore, gonna quit soon if shit doesn't get fixed

The leadership of the movement is socialist as fuck. They got their 20% raise and turned it down because its about chaos not money

True.

AZFag here

tldr
>teachers get payed shit
>promised big ass raise a few years back
>dont get it
>bitch at the unions
>unions bitch at state government
>government offers 20% raise in return for higher taxes
>union denies
>teachers and normies REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

i see the educators frustration. my high school teachers had to pay outta pocket or use shit like gofundme to get classroom supplies.

other point is, the quality of education your state gets is directly related to how much you put into it. We are below puerto rico(last time i checked) in terms of how smart our kids are ending up. After the new standardized tests were instated in 2015, the scores went down and funding was cut as a direct result.

maybe its intentional because they think poorly educated students are more likely to vote red

i would hope they think about their higher performing students. most, if not all of the top of my graduating class are right leaning to some degree. Myself included.
shit students are still shitters.
t. Surprisefag

Interestingly enough, Arizona has the top performing charter schools in the country, with 0% drop out rates and 100% graduation rates.

can confirm. charter is truly the master race.

I'm from Vermont and the average salary of a South Burlington teacher is 73k, which is more than double the salary of the average tax payer, and yet they still whine.

the fucking tards just cry when the county raises property or sales taxes. they want everyone else to pay more and more and more. look at tucson/pima retard central has 8% sales tax, now and property tax assessments are going up.

Leveraging their power in numbers and using students and their parents to push for pay raises. Claim to be in it because they just love teaching, shut the schools down to march at the capital for pay raises preventing students from learning. Bitch and whine about having a 4yr degree or phd and making only 45k for 9 months of work. I can sympathize with some of their complaints but this is getting to be a bit much, listen to KTAR and you would think there is nothing else going on in the world but red for ed.

tax raises certainly arent the answer here. personally, id cut some of our state governors/senators pay in order to give to education here. fuck McCain and giffords.

fun fact:
AZ taxpayers covered McCains surgery and pay when he had the cancer scare last year.

arizona isn't thinking about higher performing students if they won't even grant proper funding to schools.

They're thinking about how students that don't get a good education are more likely to fall for conservative propaganda. thats my conspiracy theory anyway

its probably more likely than just conspiracy theory. sharing a boarder with CA is cancerous

they should have paid for his lethal injection instead. would have saved lives and money

It's all part of the new Protest Culture.

The Unions are looking for more money, the Teachers don't want to teach and would rather call in "sick" and "protest".... the students don't want to be in class either and they love protesting during school-hours

the CNN/MSNBC camera trucks will show up, it doesn't matter who is protesting, it makes good TV ratings

>Auto
yeah. the damn RINO is dragging our state through the damn mud

makes me sad. Americans have nothing to gain by keeping the future generations stupid, but of course funding education is for commies now.

yeah. like i talked with my very neoconservative family about it and they think it is all rubbish. pity too.

arizona is shit, I hate tucson. It's full of spics. I can't even go into the bank without hearing spanish being spoken. FUCK SPICS

Fuck off. What kind of shit teacher forgets an apostrophe like that?

We should dismantle the entire public school system. It's insanely inefficient because entitled babysitting shits like you need life support. You're just overpaid babysitters. Half of your students would have been better off entering the workforce at 14 for all the good the public sector does.

A bunch of obese woman teachers with more kids than they can afford went to college to learn babysitting and think they deserve gibs

Yet over here I have dated a couple of teachers that made less than 2k a month, work around 12 hours a day, come on weekends, and have to work just about all year, yet they don't protest and chimp out. They know what they got into and did it because they are passionate about it.
My dad was a principle all throughout my childhood and I constantly got to see and hear how dramatic teachers are. Most aren't even worth the wages you pay them and you can't fire them after so long. Its not even difficult to be a teacher. Anyone can do it.

The public school building is the most dangerous building in any community.

Blacks are starting to wake up to the 'democratic plantation". I think the flashpoint will be the terrible schools with endless budgets.

If only someone like Kanye would start talking about things like this.

Oh shit...

Apparently they had a vote where 70% of the teachers said they would stage a walkout due to adequate pay. Superintendent said that there's no school on thursday, and Arizona is a right to work state, so refusing to work is grounds for termination. My mother is a teacher and finds it extremely distasteful the methods, but not necessary the demands of teachers. It inconveniences a lot of parents who work, and also makes teachers feel uneasy about their employment.

I went to school in Arizona. public school teachers here don't deserve a fucking DIME more. Maybe things have changed since I was in high school 15 years ago.

.....But since we're still almost last in education, probably not.

I went to my mom's workplace before to help with unboxing at the start of the year, the classrooms are cinderblock, no windows, and lit with just fluorescent lights. Charter schools have full wall windows, bigger classrooms, and more equipment, they just don't offer the same benefits and salaries to educators.

People like you really kill me.
In business we produce income statements and balance sheets and we analyze how much money we are making and how we are making our money. We know how to negotiate and how to look at alternatives and creative options. At regularly scheduled times in the business cycle, we decide to adjust our business model in order to get the best option available for us. We don’t complain.
If you aren’t making enough money, do something else. Know who you are negotiating with. you probably shouldn’t be offering them net 2190 terms (6 years). Sorry you went to public school so you don’t know these things.

> low salary for teachers
> smart people avoid becoming a teacher
> only people with no other option become teacher
> education begins to suck
> dont give them a fucking dime more

Was it the chicken or the egg user?

>am teacher
>need muh nessecities

I would say uneducated folks are more likely to vote blue for the gibs.

AZ has some of the lowest pay for public workers in the nation, and they wonder why they get shitty teachers and cops that shoot crying guys crawling on their crossed ankles.

You get what you pay for, and they're paying absolute shit, but that's a result of the taxpayers wanting to pay jack shit.

This is 100% true. Public sectors (teachers, police, fire, etc) are all promised scheduled raises bases on years of service, but in most places in AZ the raises never come. You just stay making what you're making, even if new hires are offered a higher amount based on inflation.

Unions can't do much because muh right to work. It's complete bullshit and there needs to be a complete state government shutdown.

>Fuck off. What kind of shit teacher forgets an apostrophe like that?

A low paid Arizona one. All the competent ones leave the state for greener pastures, leaving lesser qualified educators to teach the next generation.

You're an absolute fool if you don't place a high emphasis on educating the youth. Dumb kids grow up to be dumb adults, and we don't want a society of retards like you. We want to remain a civilized nation, not become more similar to places like Africa where kids enter the workforce young.
