Heritage Auctions

[carrigansghost]

Please don't get me started on teacher's wages. I would love to work 38 weeks a year for 30K plus benefits a year here in Maine. I have a teacher on my facebook that complains endlessly about the work and posts photos of her summer exploits. I lived with a teacher for 2 years and she was never late getting home from work and I never saw her doing any homework.

Having no pedestals is a pedestal.

...........and there's nothing wrong with that.

Funny you should say that - I was thinking it myself as I typed. It's kind of a strange loop.

I like to put women on pedestals....just high enough that I can see up their skirts.

I'm confused.

Rawn,
You don't like heritage, won't go to the dinner because they are a sponsor yet you consigned items to their next auction? If i confused the information, sorry.

[HRBAKER]

I have no opinion on the degree of hypocrisy it is to bid (or dine with) with a AH that you complain about, however I do think it is myopic to think that any business would change their practices when customers continue to demonstrate that despite their indignation they will come back for more.

Actually,Brock, I have no problem with any auction house. I have said nothing against them or for them. I have a problem with the bashers that will go to the gathering regardless of their personal feelings.

It's the little pricks on here that think they are the kings that get to me. Please reread the posts and then come back with something constructive.

Ever seen the Carrigan? I will never stop looking for it.

ok... sorry for the confusion.

Wow, way to bash my profession as not important, lazy and a bunch of complainers...

PS Very hurt and I thought better of you Rawn.

I guess your experiences with the two teachers you mention just says it all for the entire discipline.
(If you think it's such a cushy job, Rawn, what's stopping you from becoming a teacher? Lack of education, perhaps?)

[carrigansghost]

Actually no, it's the attitude of the parents. I'll put my education up against anyone on the board. I'm thinking maybe 51% I'm ahead of. Fine with me.

So do the rest of us.

[carrigansghost]

Smelled you from a long way off.

Anyone else want to chime in to get off topic? 12 weeks vacation a year to start plus snow days, workshops, conferences and it's only the start.

4 "sentences"
1 of 4 is incomplete.
1 ends with a preposition.

Personally, I would not "put my education up against anyone on the board" if half my sentences were grammatically flawed.

Your potshots against the education profession at all levels are simply ignorant. As an educator I work about 50-60 hours per week during the nine months per year when I am getting paid. I work about 20-30 hours per week during the summer when I am not getting paid.
