It looks as if my wife and all of her fellow teachers in the school district in which they work are going to go on strike. Awesome.

Detroit just got done with one of those, complicated by the fact that a few years ago the state legislature apparently made it illegal for teachers to strike, which of course was brought up again and again by the administration throughout the strike.

 

Hopefully there's no such law where you are.

If they picket in front of a school, I'll PayPal you $5 if you can get video of them chanting:

 

"hey hey, ho ho, this penis party has got to go, hey hey, ho ho..."

I suggest you post on the fridge a list of chores she can do around the house since she won't be at work.

 

Make sure you include "clean the couch cushions" in case you end up having to sleep there.

don't think so, as there is a defined protocol and series of paperwork/etc. involved by both the teacher's union and school board before the actual strike occurs. i'm not aware if the use of the word 'penis' in any picketing is considered okay or not.

she already works half days and taking care of our twins pretty much takes up a lot of her time. :lol

we have that law here. 2 years ago, our district went out on strike and they started arresting teachers. my across the street neighbor spent at least 1 night in jail.

When I was in 6th grade the teachers in my district went on strike, my mom being a commie/socialist was tight with the teachers union so our basement became a strike HQ. (we lived acriss the street from the middle school). It was not really that great, I got stuck being tutored with the other teachers kids instead of being able to hang out with the other kids and watch cartoons and stuff.

is it acceptable social behavior to throw mostly-empty water bottles at other commuters who don't follow your personal "rules for the road"? Just curious...

Short answer yes with an "if", long answer no with a "but"

All of them?... or just 1?

 

 

you're off the hook for the time being. Caliber's got it covered. But I'd like to

keep you in reserve if I may.

hmm...

 

well, I've done it a couple of times before, when I was younger and not quite as wise (this was circa Spring of 2006) or as afraid of getting shot. I guess I should try to practice love, kindness and patience and all that hooey right?
