yeah the holidays are good, no one said they weren't but thats a poor argument

well then they are obviously bad teachers

I am a TA, preparing to go to Uni and get my teaching degree and i know firsthand the effort and preparation that goes into giving your kids the best possible education we/they can

What would be the point in spending loads of money during an economic recession on snow clearing? It happens once or twice a year at the most. Russia and the likes are prepared for this because it happens every winter for a sustained period.

I can't speak for the rest of the country, but here in London the roads are perfectly clear. How much would it cost the economy do you think if everyone stayed at home today? If it's good enough for people to go to work, why can't kids go to school?
 

All the teachers i knew would stay in school until 5 or 6 most nights of the working week. Just because you (Foot long) know a couple who don't does not mean they reflect every teacher, or even the majority. They just sound like bad teachers.

Oh for sure, I'm not singling out teachers here. We don't have much snow here in London. A few mm apparently.

Oh I know mate, was just referring my point to another post! I live in Kent and we don't have too much here, looks like we're about to have loads in the next hour or so though.

By the same token your experience doesn't make it universal either does it......

Of course there's good & bad (or smarter - dependant on your viewpoint) that's the same across the entire spectrum of life.
 
I'd love these people who think teaching is easy to stand in front of a class and teach, and then take on all the other issues that occur with a school environment.

See how easy it would be then. I'm not even a teacher, but God do I appreciate the work they do

It depends what you're comparing it with.

I'd say (with confidence) that their job is not as tough as many would have you believe in comparison to many professions.

Clearly it's not Alaskan crab fishing, I'm just interested to see where you would place it in terms of difficultly. I just think you are underestimating the job.
