Reply to comment by AurelianoTampa in Los Angeles schools closed as first day of district workers strike begins by Additional-Force-795

Ok, thank you for your correction. Reading into more, they are asking for a 30% raise across the board. Maybe my comment would have been more correct if I had said, "school workers shouldn't have to strike for a 'living wage'.

Not even a “living wage” the classified workers want to raise the minimum pay from $25k to $36k. $3000 a month isn’t living anywhere near LA. Good for my fellow teachers supporting these essential workers.

It aint even that after taxes either. Especially in cali. 36k in cali is laughable at best.

For one this is not about teachers but support staff.

Second they are part time so the “living wage” Bernie Sanders crap you want to say is for part time employees.

I hope you are not a reading comprehension teacher . . . .

Nope. I am not a teacher nor do I care about my spelling or grammar on Reddit.

Nor understanding the meaning of "reading comprehension" for that matter. Hint: it has little to do with spelling or grammar.

Who said it was? My comment directly states it’s about classified workers. Teachers are striking alongside them to show support. Second, not all of them are part time. These are some of the hardest working people I have had the honor of working alongside.

Sorry you are so bitter against working people. A very quick glance at your post history tells me you may want to spend a little less time obsessing over meme stocks and a little more time in self-reflection.
