I know opi, but what is actually wrong with a 20 year teacher and a 10 or 5 year one make the same money, they are doing the same work. I know all the arguments, have heard them for years. Sooner or later, governing bodies are going to have to take a hard bargaining stance and let the chips fall where they will. My original thoughts really were with the administrators etc, they are not covered by unions, I believe.
