Let's pretend that an assistant manager at best buy had to deal with the same working conditions as we find in the schools: -First off, she would be required to get a college degree and a state certification in retail management. She wouldn't necessarily be paid any better, however. -A large minority of her customers would never actually buy anything, but mostly just nap in the store, harass and occasionally assault employees and customers, deface and damage the store. -Many of her customers would never have seen DVD players or computers and so most of her customer time is spent trying to explain basic concepts like what a television is. -Anything short of actual assault would not be enough to remove a customer from the store, though he/she might be required to sit in the store office for a few minutes. -She would be required to review hundreds of pages of paperwork each week on her own time. -She would be expected to maintain a profitable store that also improved the community and made her customers better people. Why do we tolerate conditions at our schools that we'd never tolerate in any other employer? (Other than prisons, I guess)
