Hmmm.....the teachers set the record straight that talks are NOT going smoothly as the government indicated a few days ago...lol. Now they want to withhold report cards! I wonder how many more future generations they intend to place in line to be screwed because of their industrial actions and their attitudes.

Teachers do so much. They should be paid for it. Deal with them bad ***** children day after day.

To think that some $I$$Y boy can get a soft government job where he does drive round his 'friend'/boss all day in an air conditioned car and he does make more than the teachers who in the hot classroom ducking chairs thrown by the kids and the insults and fists thrown by the parents!:taped2:

Fire the teachers. Hire Customs inspectors to teach economics. Both make the same salaries but (go to the customs parking lot) the school teachers drive beat up cars but the customs guys manage their salaries better because they live a better lifestyle

...you think the national average is bad now...just wait until custom officers finsih with the future of our nation...

The answer to this riddle is simple. Teachers are more honest and reliable. Also custom officers/inspectors make tons of money in overtime. In many cases their overtime pay is higher than there actual salary! So stop your crap, bob!
