It can be assumed that a significant part of the WhatsApp messages sent to households in Israel in recent weeks contained the words "babysitter", "available?"
And of course "work from home".
This is how it is when the Israeli parent receives in the 90th minute a message that opens with uninteresting information such as "explosion in negotiations" and ends with the words "strike" - should be improvised.
When you think about it, the last teachers' strike (like the centuries before it) was a kind of holiday ban: a kind of Israeli destiny that no one in the universe understands, but understands that because of those details he loses a day's work and has nothing to do because "that's the way it is."
For the first time in a long time, even the devout in the craziness of socialism and the sanctity of the workers' committees were caught grimacing and expressing dry support out of the ordinary, and this too due to a pavilion condition.
It turns out that they, too, were surprisingly looking for a babysitter.
Yes, the crack that has widened in the false and well-marketed assumption that all teachers in Israel are not materialistic and wealthy workers like us parents, but martyrs from the world of Christianity whose indescribable suffering is meant to atone for our sins.
As a member of a family laden with teachers and educators, I call Lipa Ben-David: In your mother, leave us.
Leave and take with you the teachers who sometimes earn twice as much as good teachers, because of seniority and tenure.
Take with you the hallucinatory pay slips, which are reminiscent of an Aramaic issue in the Baba Kama Tractate, but much more complicated.
Take the hallucinatory holidays with you (do you light candles on Hanukkah? Reason for freedom, because that's how it is).
Take with you also the pose of the warrior and sending the entire people of Israel to matters of education and values.
In a reality where every (!) One of the schools in Israel has at least one horrible teacher who simply cannot be fired, no one buys this game.
Take with you the cover stories and the flattering interviews that your precious PR bought with a fortune.
Ah: Please, take with you in the same bag both the rolling of the eyes and the artificially shocked face from the debilitating discovery that most of the people of Israel do not adore the race called "teachers", but admire good teachers.
And he also tries to stay away from bad teachers like herpes (and as mentioned does not always succeed, because they are a protected flower).
Take the outdated system with you and take everything, everything!
We will survive, I promise.
Although we will have schools only with the teachers we want and not with the teachers who have been instructed, and indeed we will pay for the good, beautiful, and part with friendship and ease from those who do not.
And indeed we will have a competition because of which, not us, the level will necessarily rise in all schools compared to the embarrassing level today in the name of an empty and infantile principle of equality, and indeed and indeed and indeed.
But the message you want to convey, we understand: we are bad and spoiled, you are ascetic messengers whose birthplace only dreamed of educating our children.
Everything is fine.
Just leave, beautiful.
Go.
Oh, and take his holiday with you, too.
Next time you might try to schedule your child's wedding for this day.
And congratulations of course, wholeheartedly.
Stunning dress.
Go.
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
