If you think it's so easy being a teacher, why don't you go get a college degree and become one. I mean, the grass is greener, right?
St. Mary's gets 5 days. Charles only gets 3. One year (during the tornado), we had 5 days off between the snow and the tornado. State of Maryland made students and teacher make all of them up.

I don't know/care what St. Mary's did. Charles didn't.
Take a wild guess how I know that?
So let me get this straight, your allowed 3 days a year for inclement weather, and you used 5 (thats 2 more than your allowed) and you dont understand that you had to make up the additional 2 days?St. Mary's gets 5 days. Charles only gets 3. One year (during the tornado), we had 5 days off between the snow and the tornado. State of Maryland made students and teacher make all of them up.
Usually, we only get two snow days a year and facilities usually remain open to teachers and faculty. I don't know how many more times I need to say it to get it through your thick skull.
And, again, you're using St. Mary's County as the standard. They aren't the standard.
That must be where you work. It's pointless because every business and every school district has different standards and expectations.
to the bolded comment in the first real paragraph there.
Did I say we had to make up two you infantile egomaniac? No. I said we had to make up all of them. We had 1 snow day and 4 for the tornado. They made us make up all 4 days for the tornado because it was a special circumstance. That was a STATE decision to make us make it up.
Lets talk about who's making an ass out of themselves again.
In Florida, every "hurricane day" was expected to be made up by both the students and the teachers. So, there goes yout theory.
Exactly. Yaknow, working until 9 or later to do so.
I don't know what you're considering average, but I am certain that the majority of places that fall under my example do NOT force you to use vacation if it is impossible to enter your place of business and work because it is closed.
What average joe is HAVING to do work from home that wouldn't be the exact same scenario as a teacher HAVING to get her lesson plan straightened out/adjusted because of a day off? Either the employee has the choice of doing that work at home (like a teacher) or coming in early/staying late to make up that work (like a teacher).
all you want, its stated right here its a crappy practice, but its perfectly legal and business do practice it.In Florida, every "hurricane day" was expected to be made up by both the students and the teachers. So, there goes yout theory.
Because if the Average Joe is off, he has to take vacation. He may work from home to negate having to use vacation, but its an either or. (thats setting aside a work-a-holic who does still work from home and still takes a vacation day).
Where as there is no dictate that a teach HAS to work from home, if they are off they do not HAVE to work. They MAY choose too, but it doesnt affect their paycheck (directly) either way.
