    Fuck teachers need a break too. They work 10-12 hr days sometimes 7 day weeks for shit pay, increasing responsibilities, and they are not allowed to take a vacation when it could be cheaper. Can’t even take a Friday or Monday off before a long weekend.

    Nevermind planning the curriculum for months and year in their spare time during the summer. They get maybe 4–6 weeks off before they are working again preparing classrooms, professional development, etc. /rant
