I'll tell you one thing, I went to school with a lot of people who became teachers and they certainly don't do themselves any favours in the court of public opinion on their social media. Come off as a bunch of absolute bafoons. Stupid comments about their students, bragging about March Breaks, bragging about paid PD days, etc. Even worse are the ones that stayed back East. They get a ton of snow days back there, and they start countdowns about two days before the storm until they get a day off, spend the day bragging about staying at home, and if it doesn't happen the whine like toddlers at a toy store who were told no. It's pretty pathetic and embarrassing to their profession. Not sure why it' expected that everyone else go to work except or teachers. I understand the safety of the children on buses and walking, but there's no reason the teachers aren't required to go to work on a snow day even though the children aren't there.
