Thank you, my union, for trying to protect me from the real bully

This is what I posted on the CBC website tonight:
"MLA salaries were raised in 2007 from a base of $76,100 to a base of $98,000 annually (a 30% increase). As of April 2010, the base salary was $101,859, a 34% increase over the 2007 base. And, in 2012, legislature is in session 4 days per week for 6 months... so if a teacher works 6 hours a day for 10 months, a MLA obviously only works 4 days per week for less than six months... Let me ask you this: Who has had a greater impact on your life? Your teachers or your MLAs?"

I did not go into teaching so that I could become a millionaire and I certainly did not go into it because I wanted to be part of a union. But, today, as I read about the government and their BS "investigative" report about the teacher's job action - I am thankful that I am in a union. Grateful that I have someone to back me up when it comes to getting bullied by a selfish, morally bankrupt and GREEDY provincial government run by narcissistic, uneducated and flat out nasty bullies.

What makes me so sad is that people in the province are so easily fooled by the misinformaton, the propaganda put forth by the provincial government so that they feel teachers are the embodiment of evil using their children as "pawns" in their greedy negotiations for cost of living increases. How utterly ridiculous. It makes me sick to think that so many British Columbians are so incredibly stupid to not recognize that this government cares for one thing and one thing only: themselves and their incomes. Funny how their "net zero" mandate came in AFTER their cumulative 34% pay increase. 34%?!?!?! And we are greedy for asking for 2%.

How about each one of those MLAs give back their 34% pay increase and we use that money to hire additional special education teachers? Let's put that money to actual use that will actually affect lives in a positive manner.

Shame on Christy Clark for wearing a pink t-shirt on anti-bullying day - she is the biggest bully of them all. Why are the bullies always the dumbest person in the room?
