    Look at what the secondary teachers are making, on top of having 5 months holidays a year,22 hours class time when they are actually there, plus get paid extra for yard duty, exam supervision, exam correction etc

    These guys are really taking the mick but yet nobody has the balls to come out and protest against them

    Not to mention the cash nixers they do called " GRINDS". 80% of the kids in one class I know gets them. Nice little earner. No wonder on another thread someone who worked in an Auctioneers office came forward and said who most of their customers for holiday homes were...

    Alright people, this thread is only going one place.

    Just to try keep it level, what have the rates of inflation equalled in the same period and what has the average private sector earnings increased in the same period? I would imagine bankers and construction workers would have seen similiar rises if not more.

    Yeah, we need to see cuts in the public sector, and yeah the country is screwed if we keep going as we are, but lets not let balanced discussion get in the way of hysteria.


    Main issue in the public sector is the increase in numbers, up 90k since around the same time period.

    There's no development in the thread starter above. At best, this would fit into an existing thread and there are a few wrt to the public sector. Find one.

    Same rationale as this thread's closure yesterday:
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=62753804#post62753804

    Without being overly narky (just narky enough) about it, if there's no effort going to be made to start a discussion and little effort made to continue one, this stuff is just going to be deleted for laziness. if you want a discussion, make one. If you want to complain about teacher holidays/grinds ad nauseum, start a blog.
