On strike

So I just finished my second day of picketing; figure I walked about seven miles each day up and down the sidewalk in front of my school. I'm usually one of those people who doesn't like confrontation, but I feel strongly about this. The teachers in our district have been paid less than their peers in comparable districts and our board doesn't care. They think because they get loads of applicants for every opening that they can low-ball us.

I hate it. But I'll keep it up as long as I have to.
