@jrlsilverman@AaronMesh@sami_edge This "conceptual agreement" was rejected based on a detail: parents on a committee. Any details left to iron are non-substantive. I've been bargaining labor agreements for over 25 years. The Board members averted a deal.

@GeekintheCity PQN provides good wages and benefits, and has a history of supporting things like paid sick leave for service employees. A small business being a model employer? I'll line up for thier decent tacos and excellent politics any day.
