even if teachers ask for 25000 a month, should it really matter?
any other job is only possible because of teachers mind you there are bad ones in the service which should be weeded out
what if all the teachers were to quit in the morning....as parents what would u do and would you now stay home from your job to look and educate your children?

Where you think dem gold stars in yuh chirren report book come from? (hopefully they getting gold stars)
You think the ministry of education issues gold stars for teachers to give out?
I'm sure many of you would have the experience of your child getting a treat from their teacher... what other state agency, private organisation etc do the EMPLOYEES take THEIR OWN MONEY to buy gifts/incentives for THEIR CUSTOMERS?
You ever went to tstt to pay a bill and the cashier give you a pack of Hershey kisses because it was valentines day? TALK NAH?
Doh talk about field trips... everytime I go on a field trip I end up pelting out ah extra $200-300 because children don't turn up or don't have money for transport or lunch
But teachers are criminals ent???
You know how many allowances teachers have? NONE - ZERO - NUUUUTTTIN!
Oh wait... we have COLA... FIXED @ $125 per month... You can't even buy Coca-cola with dat dread
We do what we have to do... teaching is a calling... in spite of regulations at times
It is now against regs for teachers to take any students in their personal vehicle (we can get in a lot of trouble)... but when a student is sick and needs to go home or to the health centre, you think teachers studying regulations?
Go and tell the bank teller that your belly wukking you real bad and you need to go home... you will be lucky if she give you directions to the nearest KFC with a toilet....
Some ah allyuh acting like nobody ever teach allyuh... maybe that is de problem...

Claim to do? So you never heard of teachers doing such things or even experienced them yourself?
The next step in this impasse will be "work-to-rule" A.K.A. what you and every other worker in Trinidad does 99.9% of the time.
It means we don't take any days and you don't have to find a babysitter so it has little effect on parents, but it sucks for the students.
No Dramafest, PTA, Sanfest, Cricket league, Sec School football league, fundraising, bazzaar, concerts etc etc. if it not in we job-spec, we not doing it
"Sir ah could borrow yuh phone to tell mih mom to pick mih up?" - NO
"Sir look ah boy getting stab up on de corridor!" - "Let the school safety officer handle it!"
"Sir mih dad real beating mih mom... ah fraid he kill she" - "NO TALKING! Class turn to page 364 in your textbook"

The difference is you are still doing what you are being paid for, you ever work a extra day and eh ask for no money for it?
If most government services go on "work-to-rule" the public will see an improvement in what they get
I eh saying I do EVERYTHING I mentioned, but I do a good bit, the public quick to point out how much holidays we get but ignore all the extra things the teachers do
