Stupid people

Yes I have heard about this policy and I think its extremely stupid. Productivity for a business is lost by about 50% when sick employees work, but if another teacher teaches a class for a sick teacher they will more than likely be so upset they don't care to teach the class or teach something completely off topic. A new teacher without tenure can be let go and the Board saves 30,000 dollars. A question I would like answered is how much money do the "higher ups" make and if one of them were cut couldn't the teachers that are fired stay and teach the youth of the future or is it more important that the people making these decisions keep their paychecks and continue to sit on their comfy thrones in their huge offices.
