No female in my department was EVER sexually harrassed. I said hello one day to a short fat dumpy social studies teacher (who finally had attention from someone) and she accused me of hitting on her. Stevie Wonder wouldn't hit on this pig. She is now on her way out of teaching after many years of unsatisfactory ratings. Anything ever said about Jay Dickler is common knowledge throughout the building.

He literally hid in his office and was afraid of SSA's, parents, students, UFT members, African-Americans, etc. He is/was a spineless bastard who finally got what he so richly deserved.

I'm willing to give it to Randi for going down there and making a nice safe, not really all that condemning speech (You can read it on the ICE blog) about that ridiculous 911 memo, but at the same time what if anything is the union doing to help Jamaica HS? What is the union doing to help any of the targeted schools? The answer, about the same as they are doing for ATR's, not much. If one were a cynical person they might see her visit to Jamaica HS as nice little political publicity romp, similar to when a politician shows up to help dig when a child falls down a well. Really you couldn't ask for a better win win for her. Good press. Now it's time to see what happens as the 911 story fades. Anyone want to place any bets? I'm willing to give 50-1 on her actually doing anything truly supportive. 2-1 on more hyperbole. And 1-10 on not much of anything else. If you don't get the last bit of odds, I'll spell it out "I don't think she'll do anything else."<BR/><BR/>Unitymustgo!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-29340815794678833452007-09-12T06:20:00.000-04:002007-09-12T06:20:00.000-04:00Want to hear some Randi quotes?JUNE 20th!

Show me a union leader who couldn't manage that much.<BR/><BR/>Jamaica is a school on the hit list to be closed. <BR/><BR/>Are local politicians contacted by the UFT? Are they going to try to organize alumni? Any rallies planned? Any real resistance from a giveback, collaborative leadership?<BR/><BR/>Or will she make the same statement she made at Lafayette -- that it should be closed. Maybe Unity can get a cut in the action for PD in the new schools.<BR/><BR/>Praise Randi if she does something that will save the school. You yourself often say "It's not what is said but what is done." What will be the ultimate result? Don't hold your breath.<BR/><BR/>Are you in your situation because the UFT enabled BloomKlein?<BR/><BR/>"I'm hopeful that the UFT leaders will see the enthusiasm for real union activity at Jamaica and build on it."<BR/><BR/>Are you really and truly HOPEFUL the leadership of the UFT - which with your experience you know would be very happy to see you disappear as a chapter leader - do I have to remind you of their actions at Forest Hills in the recent elections? - will see the enthusiasm? And build on it? <BR/><BR/>Excuse me a minute, I'll be back when I stop shaking with laughter.ed notes onlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15018047869059226777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33431390.post-22092246826940563122007-09-11T21:33:00.000-04:002007-09-11T21:33:00.000-04:00Norm-Randi did an excellent job on the Jamaica Hig...Norm-<BR/><BR/>Randi did an excellent job on the Jamaica High School incident.
