That’s a good point. These teachers who are leaving can just go get their CDL and make bank. Not sure why anyone would teach when those lazy truck drivers are making so much money.A truck driver with little to no post secondary education makes more bank than a teacher with a master’s degree in elementary education (or heck, even a PhD). And they don’t have to worry about awful kids or their shitty parents.
80,000 jobs to refill. $90k starting pay radio commercials on Iowa radio.A truck driver with little to no post secondary education makes more bank than a teacher with a master’s degree in elementary education (or heck, even a PhD).

May I ask what you mean by "sure you will be in charge but won't have anyone to lead"?Not surprising, this is just the start. Have fun crazies, sure you will be in charge of the schools but won’t have anyone to lead.
I can’t wait until Iowa is in the same boat and COVID Kim will probably be trying to get legislation passed to force those with a teaching license to teach.
Many teachers will be gone….class sizes will be nearly double out of necessity.May I ask what you mean by "sure you will be in charge but won't have anyone to lead"?
Ooo. So "won't have anyone to lead" means won't have any teachers?The teachers will be gone….class sizes will be nearly double out of necessity.
All leftwing driven self inflicted wounds.
The profession has done this to themselves.
Correct. I mean that’s what an organization is….you have board lead by dictating policy, management enact plan for policy (administration), workers execute the plan (teachers).Ooo. So "won't have anyone to lead" means won't have any teachers?
I see what you were saying now, originally I took "sure you will be in charge (meaning admin/teachers) but no one left to lead (students)Correct. I mean that’s what an organization is….you have board lead by dictating policy, management enact plan for policy (administration), workers execute the plan (teachers).
Kinda like cops rightAll leftwing driven self inflicted wounds.

Well, that's what they are doing in some cases. Although there's a lot of hidden costs to being a truck driver that takes away from their pay. Like, they have to pay for their own gas. And they have to pay for their own truck, or be leasing the truck from the company they are hauling for. I suppose there are companies out there with their own trucks and just pay you to run stuff from one place to another, but I doubt they pay as much.That’s a good point.

There will probably be a huge influx of teachers migrating to blue states in the coming years.
Blasphemy. I’ve been assured above that truck drivers unfairly make more than teachers who have a doctorate.Well, that's what they are doing in some cases.

Of course you would twist it that way. The complaint wasn't that truck drivers were making too much money.Blasphemy. I’ve been assured above that truck drivers unfairly make more than teachers who have a doctorate.

Bingo. States like Minnesota are not really shy about the fact they are actively recruiting Iowa teachers.There will probably be a huge influx of teachers migrating to blue states in the coming years.
True. The problem with America is too much social mobility and the lack of intergenerational wealth concentration.All schools should be privatized to begin with.
Minneapolis (blue) or Minnesota (red)?Bingo. States like Minnesota are not really shy about the fact they are actively recruiting Iowa teachers.
There are a few educators in family and friends groups, and one just recently decided to do just that.
Taught.What did teachers do to be called groomers? Be specific.
Guessing truck drivers work weekends and the 2.5 months in the summer also.Well, that's what they are doing in some cases.

Well there’s only so much $ out there to be had, and if you want to give teachers more, the truck drivers are going to pay for it in taxes. Why does a doctorate even qualify someone to make more money as a teacher anyway? You’d think they could reward based on performance only. The flaws of government I guess 🤷♂️Of course you would twist it that way. The complaint wasn't that truck drivers were making too much money.
How would that work…exactly?You’d think they could reward based on performance only. The flaws of government I guess 🤷♂️
Idk but incentivizing people to go get arguably worthless degrees seems pretty foolish. Over-qualifying yourself shouldn’t be rewarded.How would that work…exactly?
The right-wing spotlight shines very brightly and you don't want to be in the crosshairs of these idiots. Now the MAGA's who flood Trump rallies, go to school board meetings with their lies and outrage. I wonder what % even pay taxes as they apparently don't have freaken jobs.What did teachers do to be called groomers? Be specific.
He doesn't know, or care to know. He's just throwing tangential thoughts at the internet. Probably while driving down the road in his big rig making bank.How would that work…exactly?
Obviously teachers should be evaluated based on standardized test scores.Idk but incentivizing people to go get arguably worthless degrees seems pretty foolish. Over-qualifying yourself shouldn’t be rewarded.
🤷♂️ not the greatest measure either, but certainly a better measure than a phd. I mean, come on.Obviously teachers should be evaluated based on standardized test scores.
