Nope. Teachers also don't get unemployment benefits if we lose our jobs.
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Wait, what? The fuck?
msbelle, Hyundai Elantra Touring. Four-door hatchback, small, astonishing amount of cargo room, feels great to drive, good gas mileage, looks good, excellent safety rating, turn-off-able passenger side air bags, interior very well designed, and it's under $20k.And they come in red. I adore mine and named her Jewel. Aaaaaand now I'm going to bill Hyundai for ad time and go work for Leverage.

Now tagless for your comfort.
But they get three months off every summer, have cushy benefits and hardly do any work at all.

Can you tell we're in the middle of a bitter school referedum battle on the ballot in two weeks?
In all seriousness, Kat, that is fucked up.
Also, Allyson's neighbor sucks.

KCD was trying to feed me this line recently. I was so gobsmacked, I couldn't respond. There is a reason we didn't discuss politics much when we were together. I'm still gobsmacked.

It's this super complicated mess. If you are RIFed (and notices get sent March 15, by law) and you are actually terminated in June, you usually end up screwed by the district because the district compels you to work as a sub in order to maintain health benefits. When you are a sub, you aren't unemployed.
However if you are RIFed, then laid off and you immediately file for UI and in fall if you are not rehired, then you are given unemployment benefits for the whole period including retroactive summer UI. But they usually move you to the sub pool which is bad because you get paid for only the few days you work and you can't file for UI.
It's commonly held that laid off teachers don't get UI.

My sister figured out what she made approx. $2.75 an hour her first year teaching. And then her Master's degree, which she was required to have, bumped her up a whopping $1500/yr. Which means she she'll "see" the raise from her Master's in about 26 years.

That's... unbelievable dickery. I am astonished that anyone wants to be a teacher, the way they're treated. And very grateful for those who do.

I should be asleep, but in a coincidence of nature, stuck my head out onto the balcony and heard the cry of geese. A perfect V, heading due north, noisily. Maybe they'll camp tonight at Lake Montabello, maybe they'll keep going. Nature calls it spring.
