There’s gonna be a push in September. TSA is going to require it for one. I expect the major teachers unions to be a pain in the ass too
Hopefully the sheep have a little bit more fight in them this time around

I don’t give two sh*ts about Rutgers. It’s football season.
Where did you see they are requiring masks? Their website says masks are no longer required:

So the "teacher push" is not really about masks...it is about going remote.
I hated teaching remote BUT...if I had 2-3 years left until retirement, I could totally see why they would be pushing for masks because that would mean a push for remote.
Remote teaching, as you non-teachers that now work remote, know how easy life it.
I get up at 5am now, not a big deal. When I "taught" remote, I got up pretty much whenever I wanted before 8am.
I ended class when I wanted. I cancelled class when I wanted and sent the notes/work to the class and then went golfing. On Friday I would make sure I was done with my last class by 2pm so that I could chill or hit up happy hour.
Errands, yeah it was great to be able to do that during the day. Or get chores done or make appointments that I could go to during the day.
I think the real pain in the ass was parents found out that they hated having their annoying kids at home all day, which I totally get. Teachers went from "heroes" to "villains" within 3 months.
Truth is, we are neither a hero or a villain, we are just normal people.
I hated "teaching" remote but it did make my life very very easy.
I am sure @PeliniTheCrutch can add in some info too.
Going remote for school harms the development of children. Suck it up and go to class.
No wonder kids are getting dumber these days with that mentality. During Covid I was physically at my desk everyday, just like any other ordinary day. Can't believe you up and brag about it!
I thought the lefties were huge fans of my body my choice.. guess not
There going to push Covid for the up coming election. A number of news media are saying we’re having A new variant
Yep.. I think this a test run for next year.
It won't be Covid. The US gave the WHO full authority to declare a pandemic. The WHO will find something around March of next year requiring mail-in voting. The WHO is laying the foundation now with a new strain of something...
That’s (D)ifferent.
Didn't comply the first time. I'm very happy and blessed to have witnessed the Covid absurdity. I now know who to avoid and I know that I'm surrounded by folks who cannot think for themselves, a huge advantage.
Kids are smarter today than ever. More advanced in tech, coding, math, foreign language. What my students do in school each day destroys what I did and what you did in school. They are constantly attached to their classrooms because of the internet, they never get to "leave class behind"
You sitting at your desk all day...well good for you. I really was not "bragging" about it, I was talking about it.
You knew after last year that they were going to push a Covid vaccine every fall just like the flu shot..
It’s America decide for yourself want you want it or don’t want..
Yes, there's a small move now beginning for the Fall season to reinstate Covid mandates including requirements for masks and vaccinations. Not clear yet how widespread this will become.
I’m gonna be pissed if I have to start wearing a mask again on flights
I never want to wear one again BUT I am a huge vag and will comply if we are forced.
Again masks don’t stop Covid! People need to watch the movie contagion
Can we please have a return to common sense?
I mean, we all know this is a nefarious agenda at play but are there any good guys left?
Some kids! Next time you go to McDonald’s. Ask the HS kid to count the change back to you . Good luck.
Yeah, that can be true as well!
I make sure to use my card though...cash is for strippers and dudes in the mafia.
And my bookie...when I have to go pay him in cash at a seedy bar parking lot.
But, every generation of old people complain that the younger people are dumb but all we do is keep advancing in pretty much every possible way.
Know someone that works at methodist critical care and she told me the ones last year that were being a admitted were the one that we’re getting the recent Covid shot last year..
With all due respect, it's an attitude like this from way too many teachers and the teachers unions that helps explain why our public education system in the US is an absolute disaster. Lots of other reasons, too, not the least of which is the breakdown of the family.
A good teacher is worth her weight in gold and they need to be compensated for the extremely important work they do. But the bad ones (and they are legion) do a lot of damage.
If you don't have the desire to sacrifice for kids or the personality that is required to do so, do everyone a favor and get out of education. I was in education early in my career and decided I wasn't wired to do it and got out.
Getting booted out of school because you feel the “vax” isn’t safe is an issue bro. Some kids started school prior to the draconian rules
It's not "their" rules. Quit playing pretend. It's absurd and an assault on the freedom of these kids and their health.
Per the CDC Covid Data Tracker, Covid hospitalizations are up 21.6% and Covid deaths are up 8.3% for the week. Summer numbers have been low of course, but I, my wife and one of my SILs contracted Covid on a cruise and I'm assuming a number of other passengers ended up in that same boat. Our cases were not reported, and I would imagine case counts are difficult to track. But this is not true of hospitalizations and deaths.
If I'm a parent and case counts rise in the fall a bit more than expected, I'd rather have my kid in school wearing a decent mask than shuttering the schools again. But then again, I'm not a political reactionary when it comes to viral biology.

I was expecting an idiotic response from you, and you didn’t disappoint. Well done.
Every single teacher I’ve talked to hated it as well. They ended up spending more time trying to help individual kids and it almost completely wiped out their evenings. We had a hybrid model that first fall and that was a mess. Lots of kids got left behind.
Covid hospitalizations in Fla up 29% over the past two week period.
