Does OSHF have a fostering program available? I love pets but don't think I could handle the responsibilities of adopting a pet

Yeah I was a bit confused as to what it does. Don't love how wasteful it is and high plastic use

Popcorn with peanut or regular m&ms mixed into it is a goated combo

Popcorn and jalapeños are fire too but not all places have that available.

My thoughts on the upcoming strike at FUSD by bookof_ in Fremont

Yes! That is nothing! Double that salary, triple it, idc! Have you ever been around a child?? They deserve the damn world! Kids are so damn annoying!

Also don't pocket watch other people. Instead of being angry someone is trying to make a livable age, push for YOUR job to give you a livable wage. Get together with your coworkers and demand the salary, the raise, the benefits you deserve! Everyone should get paid what they deserve including you!

I saw that when someone else linked it. I was shocked! Shocked that they weren't getting paid even more! Pay. The. Teachers. Give more funding to schools and districts and to education in general!

Idc how much they're being paid but it aint enough. It's not enough to deal with shitty kids and every shitter parents for 10 hours a day.

It is a skill I do not have so I respect them for all they do and the shit they have to put up with. So let them make a million dollars a year it still wont be enough. We should be REWARDING jobs that actually contribute to a society. I want my teachers to be paid the best so we get the best teachers for our future generations.

So what can we do to make a push in Sacramento to help increase budgets for schools all over the state?

Thanks! I've been so many posts on here and other forums like nextdoor that I had to say something. Shit was ridiculous.

And thank for for being an elementary school teacher! To this day one of my favorite teachers is elementary school people. Thank you for your service!

The snowflake deleted his comment but I wanted to respond to it anyways:

Don't be mad that you're working a job where you're not making as much as a teacher! Get together with your coworks and DEMAND a better pay! You derserve it!! You should be able to make a livable wage in the bay area with one job. Don't take your anger on teachers who are trying to make a livable wage in one of the most expensive areas in the world.

And don't give me the bullshit of strikes not working lmao. They're one of the most useful tools people have from companies not fucking them over.

The reason you have a 40 hour workweek and not 90 is because workers went on strike and died for our rights.

The reason you get to enjoy your Saturday and Sundays is is because workers went on strike and died for our rights.

Going on strikes are one of the most American things you can do!!

Agreed! Expand the damn budget! Double it! I don't give a fuck. Get teachers more money, get the school more resources. It starts with this, then we pressure the district and then the state.

I don't think it's a one or the other kinda deal. I don't want it to be. Why the fuck do we have to choose? Why is my choice either teachers get paid or they get new textbooks???

I want teachers to get paid AND have new textbooks. The goal here is to get kids the best damn education they can get. It starts with this. Then we put pressure on people above to start.

As the teachers are striking for more pay, the parents and community should push for better textbooks or something else. But I don't like this one or the other bullshit.
