sabotabbyHuh. My union did a clever thing. It will now make all bargaining briefs open to the public. You can read everything here. If you are interested in reading the minutiae of labour negotiations, you will see that we are not in fact greedy fat cats who want to get all the monies but want to ensure a decent learning environment for the kids. It also proposes bringing back the best cost-saving measure that everyone loved, the Voluntary Unpaid Leave of Absence Days, which they should never have gotten rid of because they saved both money and sanity.
Anyway, it's all out there so you can decide for yourself if we're being reasonable or not.
Your move, Lecce.

On a happier note, union membership is optional in this country (thanks Margaret Thatcher) but I promised to join when I had a permenant contract, certain that this meant I'd never join because, I'm a millennial, no one hires us.
BUT GUESS I'M JOINING THE UNION
