That doesn't make the practice good for the district or, you know, the kids though. Of course it's good for the sh**tty employee, nobody is arguing that.
edit-but everybody knows Teachers Unions care about teachers more than students, as they should, I suppose. The rest of us want what's best for the kids though. Which means firing bad teachers.
This. Unions look out for their members' interests. Sometimes the teachers' interests lines up with the kids' (class sizes), other times they conflict (firing bad teachers, pensions)
