Sadly the qualifications that the councilman is so focused on seeing apparently weren't as important to the voters (all 15 that probably went to the polls to give them their seats). Pay the gentleman the $18.75/hr. that the state has covered from their end now or pay 4x as much per hour out of the city's pocket a few years from now when you bring in contractors?
Tough to get decent kickbacks from such a relatively small amount of money though, right Jamael and DeMaine?
I feel your argument and appreciate how you've framed it. The fact remains that most others don't enjoy the same shelter from termination that teachers enjoy -- good, bad or indifferent and whether you agree or disagree that is a fact. Teachers aren't the only ones that stand under this type of umbrella but they are definitely under it.
If he did in fact leave the job without giving proper notice potential future employers should have the ability to learn that, it should not just disappear into thin air -- whether discussing teachers, pilots or circus clowns information like this gleaned pre-hire makes it possible to truly hire better, more invested employees. Students deserve that at a minimum, right?
Also "productive member(s) of society" respond when contacted by their employers. They should have sent him a letter saying they had his last paycheck; methinks he would have materialized in that case.
Your money is being held by a kid named Larry Sellers. Real...brat, but I'm sure your goons can get it off him. I mean, he's fifteen. [pause] Flunking social studies.
