I don’t know shit about what’s going on in Chicago on a day to day basis, but the above statement alone makes me assume that the rest of your post is complete and utter horseshit. There isn’t a teacher in America who has had it easy during the pandemic unless there was no class whatsoever. The vast majority of them have had to work harder than normal, thanks to having to deal with weird combinations of in-person and remote learning, often at the same time due to parent choice.

I get it, [you hate the teacher’s union with a passion for multiple (mostly bogus) reasons, such as the fact that they support Black Lives Matters](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/chicago-teachers-union-threatening-a-strike/739425), but hating them most certainly doesn’t make you correct, and being this wrong puts the rest of your stance in question purely through association.
