Next time you strike, I’ll make sure to make the same point back to you.
I’m reminded of the statement “Respect is earned, not given”
Welcome to the jungle - our IR system is full of unions who operate in a less than desirable fashion, not helped by a political party in power that is doing its best to dismantle their power for ideological reasons
Yeah… Probably a bad call to tell everyone you’re a teacher before you tell everyone to go fuck them selfs. Bad call! Could have gone about that one a lot better…
Yep. It doesn’t really do a lot in practice but it’s something users can point to in the event people call them out for tweeting/retweeting something controversial or whatever.
Unfortunately there’s far too many people these days who will take offence at anything they disagree with and will go to people’s employers about it. Yes, some things written are completely unacceptable but others are so mild and are simply just because someone doesn’t share their opinion.
I’ve been around here (and the various incarnations) for decades now and there are posts out there I still agree with, posts I wrote that I don’t agree with and posts that I can’t even work out what the hell I was thinking! I’ve upset, annoyed and offended people I’m sure, not intentionally though and there could be stuff dragged up that would end any career I chose to have in politics but I don’t believe in erasing history, I believe in people changing and growing and learning to question things and come to their own conclusions and having places where they can have discussions without losing their job because someone disagreed with them.
These are my own personal views and will possibly change if I re-read this post in 10 years. I enjoy working and I’d like to keep my job, please. Thanks
