Nobody is asking them to fly a plane. Your post is bizarre.
Sigh....please read the article. Or any of the posts that have accurately countered you. Non Alberta Education employees (i.e. almost all teachers in this province, who are employed by their local boards) are not required to mark the diplomas. Whether they mark tests 24/7/365 is not relevant. This is not a job requirement. They VOLUNTEER to do it, and are compensated for their time. The province wants to pay less, fine. They have less available help, the direct consequence of choosing to pay less. The only person whining in here is you.
