Teachers' hefty salaries are driving up taxes, and they only work 9 or 10 months a year! It's time we put things in perspective and pay them for what they do - babysit! We can get that for less than minimum wage.
That's right. Let's give them $3.00 an hour and only the hours they worked; not any of that silly planning time, or any time they spend before or after school. That would be $19.50 a day (7:45 to 3:00 PM with 45 min. off for lunch and plan-- that equals 6 1/2 hours). Each parent should pay $19.50 a day for these teachers to baby-sit their children. Now how many students do they teach in a day...maybe 30? So that's $19.50 x 30 = $585.00 a day. However, remember they only work 180 days a year!!! I am not going to pay them for any vacations. LET'S SEE.... That's $585 X 180= $105,300 per year. (Hold on! My calculator needs new batteries).
What about those special education teachers and the ones with Master's degrees? Well, we could pay them minimum wage ($7.75), and just to be fair, round it off to $8.00 an hour. That would be $8 X 6 1/2 hours X 30 children X 180 days = $280,800 per year.
Wait a minute -- there's something wrong here! There sure is!
The average teacher's salary (nation wide) is $50,000. $50,000/180 days = $277.77/per day/30 students=$9.25/6.5 hours = $1.42 per hour per student--a very inexpensive baby-sitter and they even EDUCATE your kids!) Huh.
What do you think about their salaries?
For a few months, now, me and my friends have formed, what can be at best, called a moderate sized Social Service group with about close to a hundred volunteers. As the name suggests we do all kinds of services, like tree plantation drives and we volunteer to teach at government-run schools.
Point is, we wanted to name our group, and somehow we all fixated on 'If Everyone Cared' =D...............which is incidentally the name of a nickelback song! We are based in Mumbai, India, so will there be an issue if we register a domain name and stuff with 'If everyone cared', as long as we don't use it for commercial purposes???
I'm a guy 24 years old no kids havent been in a relationship since i was younger. idk wat it is no girls that are single with out children are attracted to me I'm 6"feet 198 midium build most girls think I'm cute but don't give me a chance unless they have a couple of kids a crazy baby father also chicks laugh at my jokes my boys all think I'm funny and also they all have girl friends and wifes so what is wrong with me I'm pretty good in bed too why can't i atract single woman yhat don't have children what should i do help
i know i have mental issues (i feel depressed almost all the time though at times i feel like im on top of the world ( accompanying the depressed side is a need for extra sleep, usually 12 hours to feel rested, low energy, and low drive to do anything, and nothing seems enjoyable anymore, accompanying the manic side is a decreased need for sleep, more energy, and things seem enjoyable, as if i dont have mental issues) , i have anxiety problems, and i struggle with self injury) and i think i may be bipolar though i havent been diagnosed with anything yet and dont get evaluated for 2 weeks
This is really embarrassing, but I can't sleep because I keep thinking about it. I’m almost 17 and have had issues with my dad my whole life... to the point where I almost killed myself (I left the house, so now I’m safe). I always had this memory of him when I was five, where he was kneeling between my legs and took off my clothes, and started touching my genitals... (It was at night, and NO he was not changing me)
He used to always made sexual comments, saying I’m gay (I’m straight) I’m going to get pregnant at 16 (Makes no sense whatsoever since I’m "gay" to him) and he would tell me how he had sex with my mom, and his ex wife and his girlfriends. Even one story of him raping a girl in an orphanage (Wth? I know, it sounded weird to me)
I am 100% positive I was molested; I just have doubt if it was him… I don’t want to believe it, because it would be horrible if true… I don’t know, I feel like I should forget it.
remember their nothing wrong with your drinking water
During the 1980s, the company injected more than 1.4 billion gallons of slurry underground — seven times the amount of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico during the BP disaster this spring. According to the lawsuit, Massey knew that the ground around the injection sites was cracked, which would allow the toxic waste to leach into nearby drinking water. But injecting the slurry underground saved Massey millions of dollars a year. "The BP oil spill was an accident," says Thompson. "This was an intentional environmental catastrophe." Massey denies any wrongdoing in the case. But after Blankenship started pumping the slurry underground, he took steps to make sure that he and his family did not suffer. Around the time that his neighbors were starting to get sick, Massey paid to build a waterline to bring clean, treated water directly to Blankenship's house from Matewan, a few miles away. Yet he never offered to provide the water to his neighbors, some of whom can see his house from their windows.
