Not sure if this the the right link, but it's essentially about teachers at a private Brisbane school being unsatisfied with an above CPI wage increase, because they want more.

Perhaps there should be lessons in schools that there is a 'real world' beyond the walls from within where they teach and, many people in that real world are wondering if they are going to have a job, let alone a pay rise. There's just no pleasing some people, no matter what shape our nation is in.

Dear Rehctub,

You're talking about a private school here.
"If you want the best - pay the best," is the
adage that applies.

And, as someone called Brad commented - it seems
amazing that teachers need to strike at a private
school over a quarter of a percent increase in
their salaries.

Unbelievable!

Unbelievable!
Foxy,
yep, that's the way our mentality is heading.

I think teachers deserve everything they can get!
I take my hat off to anyone who can teach these days....

Suseoline,
So do most of us ! Problem is are there enough to strike for a ¼ % ?

Unbelievable! Too right Foxy, this is the lowest pay rise in twenty years, which means they did none of the heavy lifting during the GFC. Truly unbelievable I would suggest.
