The recent strike by teachers in Chicago is over, and everybody seems to be heaving a sigh of relief. The politicians, because they can say they’ve resolved the issue; parents, because their children have a place to go during the day, other than wandering the crime infested streets of Chicago; teachers last and, in my opinion for this matter, least, get to go back to “work” (quotations explained later), with assurances of an even fatter paycheck, and safe in the knowledge that the attempt to judge their performance has been quashed.
