@British_Airways is already making me an unhappy and dissatisfied customer and I haven’t event boarded a plane. #badcustomerservice #airlinedistrust #britishonewayonly

[Melissa Grothe @MelissaGrothe]

It’s quite frustrating to have our flight cancelled twice by @British_Airways when the people with whom we are traveling haven’t had any interruption in their tickets for the exact same itinerary. Our summer travel is splitting us up from our party that booked the same flights.

I think I’m gonna switch to the world of Threads. I’m melissaannefunk over there if you happen to be in that world too. Okay, cool.

@flySEA should stop lying to all its passengers.

[Melissa Grothe @MelissaGrothe]

@flySEA would fail 4th grade math…

Wait time is 40 minutes according to them.

Have been in line since 4:10 pm. It is now 5:21 pm and we are still in line.

My students know how to calculate elapsed time better than the adults in charge here.

Hear me out… what if we spent that on educating kids instead? Or on salaries for educators? Or building infrastructures? Or hands on materials? Or bus drivers? Or literally anything else that we know actually supports student success…

The biggest benefiters from K-12 school budgets are the testing companies:

The Growth of Educational Testing
1955…$7M
1997….$263M
2021…$2.825B (with a B)

[Melissa Grothe @MelissaGrothe]

Can you use a Master of Arts in Education for this and receive a better compensation package than someone on step 13 of a teacher pay scale? #AskingForAFriend

[Melissa Grothe @MelissaGrothe]

@NicholasFerroni I am so glad that our district has free breakfast and lunch for all students K-12! It’s one less thing for kids to stress over in the day.
