In an attempt to provide an unbiased look at the problem, the San Diego Union Tribune has a couple of articles in today’s paper about our dispute. The first, Grossmont district, teachers far apart describes the current differences. The second one, Battlefield Grossmont, outlines the longer history of the disagreement and looks at the board personalities in more detail.
Fascinating stuff. The union is so weak here that a strike would never happen.
It’s basically an in-house union, from what I can tell. The county says what our increase will be, then the union fights for something small so they can say, “See – we got you something!”
It’s a joke. And, many of us won’t waste our money joining.
