Eh, when everyone is making money the private sector appreciates the public workers for doing the jobs they don't want to do.   When we are in a bad economic time, the private sector looks at the public sector as overpaid and a drain.   It's just the way it is.  I think the publics need to give back some of the concessions they were handed when times where good and the privates can't demand to much when times are bad.   

One could argue that the statement "frankly teaching school pales in comparison to the stress I manage" sounds a bit self-righteous as well...

I actually think a whiny Tiger Woods or Derek Jeter is pretty close to the 6-8th graders I teach.

Yeah, but when Tiger or Jeter says, "I'll have your job.", they can probably back it up.......

IF you are at the wrong school internationally, so can the right 6th-8th grader...
