Most districts don't want to pay anything, and the race is on to hand over everything to corporations for kickbacks (i.e. charter schools) - both sides of the red/blue aisle are guilty of that.
So they do shit like TFA (Teach For America) where they don't require licensed teachers to actually be in the classroom just kids fresh out of college with a BS in something who have no clue wtf they're doing and are supposed to "teach" kids that are roughly their own age and experience level.
They usually last a year at most, of course there are exceptions, but not many. I've seen some quit inside their first week because of how the kids are.
I've seen all sorts of dirty tricks trying to get rid of the vets with 30 years experience and who know wtf they're doing to save money.
Obedient docile dumb fucks is what politicians want anyway. They're easier to sway and keep them and their corporate masters in power.
Their work is dealing with your shitty kids. Some are glorified babysitters and they're scared to do anything because the law favors the kids and the kids know it and most of those shitty kids are shitty because their parents are worse.
Good teachers are doing lesson plans long in to their personal time and doing shit for their classes while "off" over the summer. I've seen many pay for basic school supplies for kids in their classes out of their own pockets because the kid's shitty parents won't or can't.
I suggest you actually go to the school and see how it is before judging from across the street. If you're in an affluent area it's a different set of problems but still a shit load of work dealing with helicopter soccer moms.
They couldn't pay me enough to be a teacher. I've been in enough classrooms to know I'd go to jail, my patience and temper aren't suited for it.
I'm aware of a great many people who are working longer and harder just to keep their head above water living paycheck to paycheck with nothing to show for it despite this supposedly super low unemployment rate and great economic recovery (with stagnant wages).
You might be right though, I know nothing about how "more and bigger stuff" translates overseas.
I'm in IT and not a teacher and I work K-12 and in my (red) state the legislature completely gutted the teacher's unions but people think they're amazing and that teachers barely work get summers off and have hot tubs in the lounge; couldn't be further from the truth.
The benefits get worse every year and it's standard operating procedure to keep people in fear for their jobs and to expect plenty of unpaid OT.
Teachers get shit on and everyone who supports them gets shit on worse (except managers, of course). The only thing their union does at this point that's worth anything at all is maintains legal counsel and usually they're toothless since the laws are.
for false advertising in the UK and cleared according to a Forbes article I won't like because even with my extensive ad blocking it was barely legible.
I read about it before it was released and it looked like another kickstarter-style scam to me and I knew the tears would be copious especially where they billed it as multiplayer but then said your chances of actually encountering someone else would be astronomically low.
There is a unfulfilled change.org petition and lots of other shit out there about it. I still have 0 interest personally.
30% my collection has Linux ports and that excludes most of the AAA titles, you can check on steamdb.info there is a calculator which shows your account value and other things.
The Linux filter is dead last in the list and you have to scroll to get to it - rather telling unfortunately.
It's definitely getting better but not enough to ditch Windows 7. I guess it depends on whether what you want to play/buy is listed there.
There are also some non-Steam things that work with Wine like I play Hearthstone which runs well under battle.net (Blizzard) on my Mint Thinkpad without issues.
in Star Trek monitoring and controlling every aspect of their lives? I'm not a Trekkie but the evil that comes with these fucking corporate implementations is palpable.
Soon you won't be able to opt out because everyone you fucking know will be using it and you'll be collateral damage; just like Facebook/Google/M$/Amazon already are for everything else. Guess who their biggest customers are? (Hint: It ain't you).
device.. and many of those consider it a status symbol. Why are you surprised? Personally, I'm just disgusted.
I even know people who know better buying garbage like Amazon Echo. It saddens and sickens me to see shit like this without any regard whatsoever to the consequences of the death of privacy and thus security and free speech.
Source: I worked 8 different hotels in 6 years a long time ago. If they know especially that it's some kind of special event they ALL do it and will also triple the rack (regular) rate sometimes impose a minimum stay too - fuck locals they'll come back another night goes the thinking.
and a fucking pathetic one at that. It's even more fucking pathetic that this got modded insightful and shows how fucking bad/. has gotten.
Maybe read some news sometimes. Both the FBI and CIA say it was fucking Russians. What do they have to gain by saying that but animosity from the president-elect? FFS.
Nothing worse than going from a 20m wait to 60m wait for no reason other than someone else wanted to get their fucking latte or whatever and didn't give a shit about anyone else. +1 for TELSA.
Certainly sounds like the kind of arrogant smug narcissistic egocentrism I would expect from an owner of one of these.
That they're effecting each other while leaving the rest of us 99% alone is fucking hilarious. *golf clap*
Is not effected. The CERT link is kind of crap but they have reference links at the bottom which have more meat including a PoF you can do easily (http://RouterIP/;telnetd$IFS-p$IFS'45' is supposed to open telnet on port 45).
All of these are American companies benefiting from our infrastructure, workers, consumers, defense, etc.
Why aren't they simply being made to pay? Close bullshit loopholes. They want to move all their shit somewhere else? Great. Let them be a parasite on some other country.

The problem is it becomes expected that you be working/in touch 24/7.

Here's a /. story about a lot of begrudgingly given refunds

along with that 35 hour work week - without a pay reduction.
I'm hourly and required to carry a work cellphone 24/7 despite not being paid to do so in any way (money/comp time/whatever).
But the demonization of unions by big corporate money has been very successful in fucking shit like this up for the US.

I guess you're not familiar with poor . It's like cheap but without any alternatives.
You face a bigger problem with proliferation. There's no way to hide when everyone else is doing it. Just ask Facebook.

That's just an an entirely reasonable demand. Guess whose fiscal year ends 12/31? I'm willing to bet theirs does. Fuck the families right?

this was posted on hacker news a couple days ago and I still have the tab open.
In the comments you will find a link to this, which are Ray Dalio's "Principals" which were lauded on HN for some reason.
I didn't make it that far reading them. There are 200 of them some with subsections. It seems like a lot of managerial jerking off from one.
If only this were sarcasm the whole world could understand.
don't worry they're working on changing your laws to reflect corporate profit motives just like ours.

I'd say most would. Definitely human nature.
Thanks, I tested it again as you say and still got connection refused.

You also aren't their customer because they don't even think you really have a choice. You are the product. Facebook style.
Let these fuck face tech CEOs pay for their own employee training.
