Of course there are no working teachers on this council.
Do you have any confidence that this group will get the reopening of the school buildings right?

No.
US with more than 100K confirmed virus deaths.
4% of the world’s population, 28% of global deaths.
People, even some members named to the Mayor's AC, were apoplectic after Cuomo announced his AC, noting that not a single current NYC educator was named to the council.
There are 5 other Mayoral ACs, Mulgrew is on the Labor & Workers AC too, but this is not how you build trust and its not how you do any job, solve any problem, begin or restart any major operation. If you want trust and teamwork and quality, you need shop floor input, it's vial to quality.
James do you know today's date. It is very very close to June 1st. James do you remember you promised an article by this date on how to drop out of the UFT.
Hope you come through on your word!!
Of course I trust these people...
“The hypocrisy is just unbelievable." DOE official in charge of NYC admissions debate snubs his own unscreened Brooklyn district to send his son to a highly selective, largely white Manhattan school. Bombshell report by

as usual people with little to no teaching experience making up the rules for teachers.
Already addressed. Keep the UFT or start a new union. Those are the choices.

The opt out argument is a waste of space at this point. If you want to opt out, you know what to do. You know what you lose and don't lose. You know what the union has done or not done. Make your own decision. Some will agree to opt out, some will call you a scab.

To the guy who wants me to publish a comment on Minneapolis looting: How does that have anything remotely to do with this commission?
A right wing Koch funded site NCNY
Who cares about Koch? When people argue, with reasoning, why they want to opt out, and give dozens of reasons...If you can't either agree or at least understand, then there is no more discussion. if people want to, they can. I'm not sure what makes you want to pay, but that is your call. Unless you are part of unity...
Understand what you are supporting 8:29. It is righ wing anti-union astroturf groups that want to kill unions and public education. Not our friends.
Worse than Mulgrew for certain. That commission will do bad. Koch worse.
If one opts out it is not because of Koch, it is because of unity, mulgrew, and decades of failure.
You are supporting Koch and the people who want to destroy us. Mulgrew for all his flaws supports public education.
Dont worry, mulgrew is on the list. He cares. Koch doesnt. You will all be fine.
When i see mulgrew, koch, de blasio, carranza and bob linn...i cant figure out who is on my side.
I can only speak for myself, I opted out for 1 reason, I waited 20 years for a transfer, still waiting by the way, gave the uft hundreds of pages of documentation, they wouldn't even file the grievance for a rule that is already in the contract. Still traveling over the bridge everyday. Trust me, Koch never crossed my mind. i just couldnt take it anymore.
Seriously these kids will be lucky to get jobs at Rite Aid. 1/4 valedictorians do not even hack it in city college.
This generation and the ones moving forward are going to be the laziest, dumbest fucks ever, most entitled, softest narcissistic, bunch of whiners you can imagine.
Teaching is not a profession you can recommend to anyone especially in DOE. Sewer rats have a better life than the pension and life of a tier VI, lucky for me closing on 20 yrs.
As a doe teacher, everything told to us as a youngster(work hard,pay attention, be respectful, give 110 percent) is not applicable to the doe.
This system punished those who work hard. I was(key word being was) one of those teachers for two years and it caused heartache and headaches to my mental and physical health. I was depressed and self medicating myself. Not a good combo.
So, I went to get some help by seeing a social worker who told me ‘you can only do what you can do. That’s it. You can’t turn chicken shit into chicken salad.’ Since then, I subscribed and still subscribe to that motto. This is only a job. It is not a career or a calling.
It’s a gorgeous day today. No kids handed in an assignment. So what? At 245, I am going to play golf. During lunch, I’ll eat outside. It’s nice eating in my backyard as opposed to some rat infested park in Brooklyn.
I agree with you on tier 6. It’s a life sentence. You could rob a bank and be out of jail before a tier 6 teacher gets a pension.
Be well!
Does not matter if it crossed your mind. You are helping Koch when you opt out.
10:41, We have read the same comment about your golf game ten times. Please try some original thought. Four
It is kind of like voting for Susan Collins. That is really a vote for Mitch McConnell. A vote to opt out is a vote for Koch and Eva. Bad move. At least Eva's not on this council.
There are more students than teachers here. Tells you what they think of us.
Well, i could say I have no other choice, but then you will all tell me to make it better, which obviously you cant do or you would've voted unity out 20 years ago or made the changes yourself, round and round we go.
Bottom line, if the uft president did his job, opt outs would never happen. You bending it in different directions doesnt change the job mulgrew has done.
As New York City emerges from the viral trauma of the last few months, one would imagine our Schools Chancellor Richard Carranaza would be hard at work figuring out how to revive the education system come September.
Instead, Carranza remains intent on making the good schools bad — and doing nothing to help the failing schools he pretends to care about.
