Cindy, you really need to apologize to me and should have asked in the first place if I am a teacher on strike. I am not a teacher on strike nor am I a teacher at Knoch(who are back to work and not on strike at this time.) I EXPECT you to apologize on this board for jumping to conclusions and insulting me. Please do your research before jumping to conclusions. It makes you sound like a petty and jealous person. If you are so busy with your job, how do you find time to consisently post on this board? Seems like you have plenty of time to peruse this board, so stop complaining how much you work and actually do some. Does the 45-50 hours you say you work each week include the 10 or so hours you must spend reading and posting on this board. Also, why did you subtract the amount your pay for parking and retirement from your salary? It made no sense. I am surprised you did not also subtract the amount you pay each year for food, shelter, and clothing, as well as gas. I feel sorry for you. You seem like a very petty and vindicative person who is jealous of anyone else that you feel should not benefit in anyway in life.
