That's why schools, on any cut, will lay of classroom folks (teacher and assistants) rather then admin. I have had a number of posts in the past about technology being a two-edged sword. So I could not agree with you more on that.russell1200https://www.blogger.com/profile/16258915475311426433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216751897705338056.post-69431309169291152862012-04-17T08:51:46.034-04:002012-04-17T08:51:46.034-04:00What I find interesting is that they said "T...What I find interesting is that they said "They are all doing less with less." Shouldnt that be they are atleast trying to do more with less? In my work situation our workload has atleast doubled and we have barely heard an "atta boy" much less a raise, a bonus or a turkey at Thanksgiving. The feeling is is that if you dont like it, too bad. Theres 50 others that would take your job in a minute. Its very disheartening to go from a family-like-look -forward-to-going-to-work atmosphere to an stress induced robotic zombie feel. The "best" technology is ruining the staff that has to deal with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2216751897705338056.post-46707826058888199122012-04-17T06:37:15.062-04:002012-04-17T06:37:15.062-04:00When you say "It is easier to build up the in...When you say "It is easier to build up the infrastructure than it is to maintain it" you get to the heart of the matter.<br /><br />When the agency or government is not after the infrastructure for it's own sake but to build new for power than the maintenance suffers. HS, etc is a power grab I hope it dwindles quickly.PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.com
