Thank you...I'm really not a "troll"...it's amazing how people can jump to conclusions so quicky--and fyi, calling someone a troll is likely not something that would deflate or calm someone, it's kind of obnoxious and in this case, incorrect...and lol "Seriously. Go back under your bridge and attack some billy goats." Riiight. I love debating people who are clearly on higher moral ground. Reminds me of when religous folk start in with the name calling, etc...it's like hello, don't you see the irony? Which is exactly what annoyed me, someone complaining about another persons right to complain and then being entirely too daft to catch the irony. It is obnoxious to be called a troll...sorry if I stooped to a similar empty argument. "Mods should merge that account with whoever it belongs to so we can bring them out of hiding. Vbulletin has tools that let you find duplicate accounts." Ooooooh I'm scared, wil there be any National Guard involvement--or perhaps I will be featured on an upcoming NCIS episode? I can only dream....

I have several teachers in my family, so I know, I know, you work at home blah blah blah. I know. But are you working today, yesterday...the day before? Maybe at home, but I doubt at school. I would LOVE to wear my pink bunny slippers, working while drinking tea and simultaneously watching an NCIS (one I'm in?). But not a lot of people get to do that. So maybe those who are teachers should "just be thankful" instead of immediately starting on "we don't get all summer off, blah blah". We know. We heard.

And yes, I agree, it is good to be grateful. Heck, I wish I could visit some less-fortunate third world country...unfortunately, I can't afford that.
And yes, I've considered getting another job, but with the economy what it is on Long Island, I am considered lucky to have what I have.
Still, when one works hard they are entited to fee they deserve proper compensation....and when one is posting on a forum, they are meant to voice their opinion (I think).
The pact mentality sure does kick in quick, no?
Cheers!
