<\/p>\nRUSH: This Lisa in Raleigh, North Carolina. I\u2019m glad you called. Hi.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hey, Rush. I\u2019m a longtime listener and just wanted to call because yesterday you had a caller who said she was a nurse, and she said teachers needed to stop whining about going back to school and just go back. And I am a high school teacher. And it just hit me the wrong way.<\/p>\n
Even though I\u2019m a conservative and I listen to you all the time and everything, and I thought, you know, she\u2019s a nurse and while I really appreciate everything that people in the health care industry are doing right now, she signed on to work with sick people, and it\u2019s really easy to sit back and say what other people should do if you\u2019re not the one —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Wait a minute. Refresh your memory —<\/p>\n
CALLER: — there in that situation.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
RUSH: Refresh my memory. What did she say specifically that irritated you?<\/p>\n
CALLER: She said the teachers needed to stop whining about going back to school and just get back to school.<\/p>\n
RUSH: She wasn\u2019t talking about the job teachers do per se. It was about going back to school during the pandemic.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Okay.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Right, yeah, I mean, I agree. Kids do need to get back to school because it was a disaster last spring. But, you know, at the same time, we need to feel like we\u2019re safe. And I have a 94-year-old mother I come home to, but I also have to have a job, and so, you know, I will be going back, kids are gonna be virtual for at least the first nine weeks, so I\u2019m gonna be in my classroom by myself which I\u2019m fine with doing that, but I am concerned and I think teachers have a right —<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
RUSH: How do you take attendance? How do you take attendance when everybody\u2019s virtual?<\/p>\n
CALLER: I think we\u2019re gonna have some training on that next week, they said, but we can see when kids are logged in and they will be taking attendance.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, you can see \u2019em logged in, but whether they stay there — I don\u2019t envy you. Look, everybody\u2019s worn to a frazzle here over this, understandably, and especially the doctors and nurses who have no opt-out. An NFL guy is being paid 300 grand to opt out. So tensions are wound pretty tight. I\u2019m glad you called.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
