Cunas Whingebags

I'm sick to the back teeth listening to teachers whinging about their fucking jobs. If you don't like it fuck off and get another job.

You're fairly well paid considering the short days and the amount of holiday time you have (which a lot of you use to earn off the books money). You've got high job security, and you will be well looked after in retirement.

Of course you'll wheel out the educational reasons as being the reasons for your complaints, but you're a bunch of liars. You're only concerned about your take home pay.

If you keep the money what happens to other sectors? Will we take from health to give to education? Or from social welfare? Yeah that's a good idea. Lets take from the most vulnerable people in society so the recession doesn't affect us.

I'm using the teachers here as an example, but there's nurses sitting on their holes in Cashel hospital which was closed in 2007, and they're still getting paid. Lets wheel them to the front of the next bitch fest on Kildare St. and ask them some hard questions.

We're a country full of whingebags who are still living in a FF utopia of low taxes and easy money. Of course they didn't cause the recession, but neither did I and I'm getting fucked by it too. If everybody would bloody well pull together we might get out of this mess quicker.

  3. Too bloody ture Dagnamit!

    I was laughing at the Teachers Unions crying at the weekend and staging childish walkouts whenever a minister popped up. Funniest thing was teachers asking "Why should the children suffer" - what like we're sending them to concentration camps?

    A lot of teachers and principals are on up to €90k/€100k - they're beyond overpaid.

  4. Thanks folks, it's been building up for a while.

    Another issue I have with proceedings is that the INTO would have you believe all teachers think the same way. Well they don't.

    Plenty of teachers did not take part in any of the protests in Dublin. Plenty of them do not want to take any industrial action either. Most of these teachers remain quiet and unreported due to their membership of INTO.

    For the record, I commend those who did take part in the protests, it's good to see people actually doing something, as opposed to just talking about it.

  5. enjoyed reading your post.

    To be honest i feel there is little point in moaning as realistically there is very little we can do about it . things hav'nt changed that much for us business is slower but then we never had that much in the first place.

    It was bad in the eighties as well and we survived we will again

  6. Dagn - I noticed the same last christmas after the first round of Budget cuts, I was in the local church and they had a petition to sign for a protest against budget cuts for something mad obscure like research into where development aid goes. I thought to myself if every Tom, Dick and Harry is whinging like that over cuts, where does it stop.
