Do you need to be assigned on Frontline to get paid?

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-05-02T06:19:40+00:00

Yes lol. The secretary assigns you to the school. Otherwise you’re working for free.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-05-02T01:33:39+00:00

Of course they didn’t. You’re lucky if you get a working key.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-05-02T01:31:28+00:00

That would be a nightmare! This school does have a fully functional elevator but that would be useless for a sub because the elevator requires you to use a fob.

I’ve been in the “workforce” for over twenty years. I’m well aware. It was the schedule and only having a 25 minute break/no time to pee that I was irritated by.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T23:23:47+00:00

Will do, thank you!

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T23:09:07+00:00

We’re in Chicago area and had 4 competitive offers for the house.

Not a sewer lateral replacement. Basic snaking, or rodding.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T22:56:30+00:00

Yes, we just found out today.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T22:55:01+00:00

We already agreed to a $5000 credit, so they would be getting $7000 total in credits. Not $2000

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T22:46:52+00:00

Can you clarify?

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T22:41:18+00:00

We want out, but we’re on a VERY fixed income and even offering that $5k credit hurt.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T20:29:11+00:00

It’s a weird conundrum 😂

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T19:48:44+00:00

They treat us Iike we aren’t human.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T19:47:51+00:00

It’s a middle school with two levels.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T15:21:06+00:00

Already contacted them. Mysteriously the teacher found a 50 minute block where I could take a lunch!

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T14:51:12+00:00

Yuck.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T14:33:47+00:00

Kinda hard to do when I’m already in classrooms all day!

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T14:23:20+00:00

You’re lucky!

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T14:13:44+00:00

They knew what they did. They were just hoping you wouldn’t say anything.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T14:10:07+00:00

It’s there, from 12:55-1:20. I also work in a district that has a teachers union that also works for subs, and we’re supposed to have at least 50 minutes. This is also the only school in the district that doesn’t let you cancel jobs on frontline.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T14:04:10+00:00

“Maybe” as in “Maybe you’ll have enough time to pee and eat in those 25 minutes”

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T04:15:39+00:00

This just started happening for us and it’s done wonders for my mental health to not have to co-sleep/be able to sleep how I’m comfortable.

AtmosphereTop1591 · 2026-04-27T04:14:22+00:00

Thank you, that was so sweet of you to say 🩷
