2011 Survivor

[44INAROW]

Next Season on Survivor
Have you heard about the next planned "Survivor" show?
Three businessmen and three businesswomen will be dropped in an elementary school classroom for 1 school year. Each business person will be provided with a copy of his/her school district's curriculum, and a class of 20-25 students.

Each class will have a minimum of five learning-disabled children, three with A.D.H.D., one gifted child, and two who speak limited English. Three students will be labeled with severe behavior problems.

Each business person must complete lesson plans at least 3 days in advance, with annotations for curriculum objectives and modify, organize, or create their materials accordingly. They will be required to teach students, handle misconduct, implement technology, document attendance, write referrals, correct homework, make bulletin boards, compute grades, complete report cards, document benchmarks, communicate with parents, and arrange parent conferences. They must also stand in their doorway between class changes to monitor the hallways.

In addition, they will complete fire drills, tornado drills, and [Code Red] drills for shooting attacks each month.

They must attend workshops, faculty meetings, and attend curriculum development meetings. They must also tutor students who are behind and strive to get their 2 non-English speaking children proficient enough to take the SOLS tests. If they are sick or having a bad day they must not let it show.

Each day they must incorporate reading, writing, math, science, and social studies into the program. They must maintain discipline and provide an educationally stimulating environment to motivate students at all times. If all students do not wish to cooperate, work, or learn, the teacher will be held responsible.

The business people will only have access to the public golf course on the weekends, but with their new salary, they will not be able to afford it. There will be no access to vendors who want to take them out to lunch, and lunch will be limited to thirty minutes, which is not counted as part of their work day. The business people will be permitted to use a student restroom, as long as another survival candidate can supervise their class.

If the copier is operable, they may make copies of necessary materials before or after school. However, they cannot surpass their monthly limit of copies. The business people must continually advance their education, at their expense, and on their own time.

The winner of this Season of Survivor will be allowed to return to their job.

And then the season after that, teachers will have to enter the private sector. Take care of duties from corprate descisions that could possibly save/sink the company, listen and take care of employees that at times sound like the kiddos they use to teach. Get sleepless nights when the going is tough because you have to make sure everyone except you gets paid on pay day. Most of the time they will have to eat their lunch while working because you dont have time to go eat anywhere. Get to call their spouse and tell them to go ahead and feed the kids because you are on a deadline to close a deal so you wont be home till about midnight. Then most likely they wont be able to sleep because their job depends on landing the before metioned deal. Get to expain to their kids why they were not able to be at (insert any event here). When the copier, computers, etc dont work, you get to figure out how to pay for new ones when the money isnt there. On and on it goes. I have no problem with teachers. God Bless them for what they do. But, they are not the only ones busting their butts. How many times have they missed a paycheck so the boss could get paid? It doesnt happen that way.

BEAST Zactly! Trust me when I tell you not only the teachers and educators are having layoffs and income reduction and certainly is not confined to Texas. This is just now hitting the education industry. The rest of us have been living it since the start of 2009. Buckle up.

[BEAST]

And now nothing but crickets cherping. I suppose they dont like it when the other side shows whats been going on for a while now.

BEAST The silence is almost deafening.

In my industry about 50% have lost their jobs and my wages are at about 65% of normal. I guess it has finally starting hitting some of the public sector now.

[LionFan72]

And we are not close to the bottom of barrel! Tuff times are coming, you better be able to CHANGE!, and be able to adapt.

[BEAST]

Without question guys. The public sector is the last to feel it. We've been staying damn lean since 09'.

Yeah, gotta be sharp in the private sector. Otherwise, you might get some d-bags in top positions who screw milions of people out of their life savings and end up torpedoing the whole global economy, causing a worldwide economic tsunami.
Oh...wait...damn!

Obama? Seriously? You're blaming all of this on him? So we've now reached the lowest common denominator.
It's funny how no one pays any attention to the public sector until the private sector takes a dive. Then it becomes "us" and "them". How very primiative of you.

Dude, we've been on the clock for 2 years. Welcome to the party. BHO is killing Americas economy. Take the teacher blinders off. His regime prints money like it's ass wipe. How's hope and change treating you?

Not defending him at all. But dude, our economy was in the tank before he was on the primary ballot! This goes all the way back to Reagan and everyone who's been in DC since. It just all came to a head during the Bush administration(who pulled a Herbert Hoover and did nothing to stop the bleeding).
I was as staunch a conservative as they come a few years ago. But, Enron, Goldman Sachs, Freddie Mac, and Fannie Mae forced me to reevaluate some things. I was also right in the middle of the Tea Party movement. Learned to be careful what I ask for. All we asked for was lower taxes. We didnt specify where we wanted the cuts to come from. Guess I assumed they'd come a reduction in entitlement program, a reduction in military spending, a few other federal government programs. Instead, while we decided that General Motors was worthy of billions of dollars to bail them out, we're gonna rape education and medicare. Really?
Im no Obama fan, but what's going in Texas is at the feet of those in Austin. Yes, the recession would have hit us eventually, but not this hard. Perry was insolent, arrogant, and downright foolish to push and then approve the tax restructuring of 2005. He was warned of the devistating effects it would have, and then spent a year lying about it when it did happen. Now, we're on par with California and Mississippi and will only get worse once we layoff 150,000 more people and turn loose a bunch of "non violent' criminals.

I blame all politicians we elected prior to the last Election in 2010. I mean all. If you or I did as sorry of a job as they all did in the private or at a public job we would be fired. In 2012 we can continue firing until we get them all out. If it is determined we made mistakes in 2010 then they need to go too. BHO most definately has to go. He is useless as hind tits on a boar hog.

Everyone just danced until the music stopped. It started slowing in 2002, but it just stopped in 2006.
A few lessons Ive learned. True capitalism fails just as badly and for the same reasons as true socialism. The answer lies a little right of center.
All corporations must be regulated, especially those in the financial industry.

And if the teachers fail it's ok the Federal Gov. will bail them out!

Also add another 30+ hours a week for those who coach.

Keep in mind that it isn't just the private sector that has a select group of dumb asses. Public secotor has them as well. Your painting with a broad stroke. Every D-bag that is is in a top position isn't necessarily evil or bad or trying to steal life savings etc....
