Am I a scab or the worlds best paid cupboard organiser?

STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE STRIKE

"what do we want? Better pay and conditions for our teachers and a better education for our pupils leaving to a better future for all". Or something like that.

I am in no way shape or form dismissing the feelings of the NUT and its members, but I can't help but wonder what today was all about.

I am in a non striking union, some people have said that we are jammy. If NUT gets what it wants we win, if it doesn't we will plod along regardless. Win win, apparantly.

As a supply teacher though, I am in a sticky position, if I don't work I don't get paid. The school have been very good, they have asked me to be in and get the classroom ready for the new year.

It was a hard day, it took me all day to get the job done. I spent seven hours cleaning out cupboards and sorting out crap. I said to the head as I don't have any emotional ties to the resources I was quite happy to toss a lot of broken/useless/inappropriate resources. I also found toys that the children should have been playing with all year.

All in all not bad for a day for the world's most expensive cupboard cleaner :-)
