Teachers
If it really is a vocation... as they keep saying... why don't the teachers offer to take a pay cut and then the government could re-direct the money saved into protecting the teaching services that are being cut? It would be win-win!

Just wondering like.

Although, to be fair, I'd say teaching the youth of today is one hell of a tough gig. Don't really envy them that.

I do envy the holidays though. I actually considered becoming a teacher when I finished my degree - just to get those holidays. Alas, I had no vocation, so I let it be.

Have teachers ever threatened industrial action over anything except their pay cheques? I can't remember...

I have lost a lot of respect for teachers, within the Irish system anyhow.

There's lots of fellas out there who are only too willing to get started on nurses.
