Guy Who Repeatedly Failed to Pass the NYC Teachers' Exam Gets Over $2M

Here is a guy who is highly rewarded ($$$) for repeatedly failing. This is quite a ‘participation trophy’.
My,oh my, how far our civilization has fallen when we reward those who are not even capable, to the tune of Billions $$$.

I filed this under “Culture” because it’s a sign of a cultural pathology...

    What's the problem?
    The guy in the oval office is just as big a failure (and traitor and thief.)
    He's guilty of treason and he gets rewarded every day.
    That sets an indelible example.
    NY has been an unproductive $%^&hole for 110 years, living off of thieving banksters, Wall St looters, and corrupt politicians.
    May the guilty get all they deserve.
    NIFO

    Reason number 5,787,962 why I am leaving this state as soon as possible. I am tired of being robbed and told I am a racist. New York should be called New Hell!

    When a system is set up that can be plundered, it will be. There is never a shortage of 'criminals' who will use the 'law' to plunder others. The only way to prevent it is to not have such a system.

      Hey, if you vote for Trump, you ain't black, Jack. So forget about it.
      Me dino just briefly recalled being a corporal told during 1971 I was guaranteed to make buck sergeant if I stayed in the Marines.
      Thought I'd try to reenter with that promotion despite being 76 and legally qualified for a handicap sticker.
      Thought with Pal Joey in office I could maybe bag $2 million for being turned down.
      Then I looked in the mirror. Oops, I have a skin pigment problem.

    What else can be expected. We are largely prevented from actually teaching so at some point the teachers also won't even have the expected knowledge that we are supposed to be providing.

    I have zero sympathy for any New Yorkers who voted for DeBlasio or Biden. They're getting exactly what they voted for.

    Reading his comments...
    Reminded me of a teacher with similar skills.
    In 7th Grade, she was giving us a spelling test.

    The word she said was:
    Mew-sim

    She said it a few times. I had won almost ALL of the grade school spelling bees. I memorized most of the 20 word lists in a single pass. THAT WORD was NOT in the spelling book up to date, I would bet my life on it.

    I said what? She repeated the word 2 more times. The same way.
    I asked (to an IRRITATED teacher) to use it in a sentence...

    "Da Studentz went to da mew-sim to see da ardifaks".

    I YELPED, "Ohhhh, Museum" (Without spelling it).
    Everyone started writing the answer, and she chastised me for giving away the answer.

    This guy's speech pattern brought back that memory. This lady was old as my teacher. I am sure she retired nicely... But an English teacher she was not!

    The problem is, with more and more like him, our incoming kids stand no chance of larning. I once had a brilliant professor tell a class, I can not give you learning, I I can teach you how to learn. since this moron never learned either, what does he have to offer young minds, propaganda? Mindless distractions? This is what the CFR meant when they toldReagan they needed the major of education, wen he proposed to eliminate them.e.They will never learn to read "Anthem."

    Tyranny of the minority.

    I figure this is a form of "reparations" payment without having to go through the bother of calling it reparations. The failure will likely get another 2 mil when reparations is actually passed.

    As freedomforall states: NIFO!

    My son's 5th grade teacher informed me that one of the seven pieces of knowledge that Washington State required its students to learn was "Ambiguity". I asked her why ambiguity was a proper thing to learn, and her explanation was, "Ambiguity means keeping an open mind." This was in 1980. It's much worse now.
