[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 900276, member: 3162"] No they are not. We had a 7th grade math teacher throwing desks because he could not cope with 7th graders. My daughter had never made anything less than an A until he was her teacher. She brought home a C. I went up and met him and immediately understood. They throw me in front of 50 plus engineers and technical people regularly. I am dealing with Type A, B, C, and D personalities and trying to connect with all of them. It aint easy. Anything less than an 80 is failing here. These folks are mostly in their mid 50's on average. Set in their ways. I'd much rather deal with 7th graders. You have Islam foreign professors in college telling women they need to stay at home and be mothers. A case in point is UT Dallas and my daughter was an engineering student there. Most women there change their majors and no one questions why. It aint easy for women who have to deal with that culture. You have school teachers who are awesome. You have the others who hang on to their shirt tails with union protection. Some simply need to go and the administration has very little power. About all they can do is wait until their contract expires and do not renew it. Offer long term contracts to the really good ones. [/QUOTE]
