If anyone is upset by that statement, they can look up the the oringinal "Friends," when it actually was Black people, and called "Living Single."

@Stelfreeze Teacher go to work hours before school starts & leave hours after. They take home their work. They use their own money on supplies. & still have to get a summer job because they are paid so little.

Agree! 🫶 Teachers aren't paid enough in #California. I'd know - many of my former employees quit their former job as a (elementary, high school, university) #teacher and worked in high tech (as developers, program managers, engineering managers, etc.). #PayTeachers

Yes! The most abused profession. Keep your head up teachers. I love y’all.

@PaulVallas wants to fire teachers. He made a business of closing schools like Abbott down. @Brandon4Chicago taught at schools like Abbott! Tell your friends in Chicago to vote Brandon! 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

Chicago public school teachers earn more than >60% of Chicagoans. They are getting paid what they deserve. If salary was based on performance, they are grossly overpaid.

@evanFmoore How are we defining “deserve,”? And who’s paying for that “deserved,” salary? The tax payer? The same tax payer who is paying higher energy bills? The same tax payer spending $9 a gallon for milk? The same same tax payer who is living under a hyper inflated economy?

I am actually disgusted by this. I’ve had so many teachers that changed my life and put me in the right path, without them I don’t want to think about where I would be. These teachers are sharing how much money they have in their accounts on the par day. In a society where our teachers are guiding the minds of the future, the people who will be helping us when we are later in life. I don’t think they are appreciated enough nor is the compensation package up to par. It perplexes me how they they have to spend a crazy amount of money for their education, only to struggle to get by with a smile while still being generous enough to pay for the items our children need without being reimbursed for much of it. I think it’s time we create a change, I don’t think it’s fair we expect so much of them and they give so much to us only to relieve so little. I know people are going to argue with me and say well they chose to do it so if they aren’t happy with the pay, they can get another job. While that’s true, we would be in bad shape however if they ever chose to do that. Who would be teaching our kids and preparing them for the future. I think we focus too much on things that aren’t and shouldn’t be our priority while neglecting and overlooking a major issue right below our noses. Their jobs are important and our kids would fail without them so why are we treating them like they aren’t important? It’s because it’s easy for us to think of them as our babysitters for half the day. We treat them like Nannie’s who only watch our kids while we go to work and do things we enjoy. Maybe it’s time we revisit our roles in helping them achieve our goals.
