Being a hectic week once again at work. Seems our superintendant and school board have been inspired by the Wisconsin state legislature and want to cut our ridiculously lucrative pay and strip us of much of our collective bargaining rights.

You knew that would be an idea that would spread to Utah.

At what point did pols start thinking it was acceptable to target educators and other public servants? Do you think they just woke up one morning and thought, "Hey, I'm going to fudge with state employees' pay scale, benefits and bargaining rights?" Unbelievable...

On a more positive, training note, I saw your post from Wednesday regarding the treadmill work at sub-6:00. That's got to be a nice feeling. I'm sort of stuck in a place where anything under 6:30 feels hard, so I appreciate that kind of effort...even inside.
