How many days are you in the office?
Im not searching for a new job but an acquaintance reached out about a similar role at a similar energy company.Turns out 2 ppl threw my name in the hat. I looked into it and the position was posted 2 weeks ago.Their director wants to meet.I bet pay is one of the first things to be discussed so that no one’s time is wasted.Am I crazy for not wanting to entertain it for less than 20-25% base pay increase?Is it selfish to ask for more? I’m sure most salary conversations end in negotiation anyways?
Lets all blame Pentagram for this.

I'm not sure about this. This news website says that IEP's and funding will not be eliminated.

You might want to look into what the repercussions of these policies would be on children and families. And, the lack of accountability. I’m not saying that our education system can’t use improvement, but Mandate 2025, basically written by ‘Moms For Liberty’ is an horrible plan for all kids but especially our sped kids.
“The promise of free universal education for all children would be revoked. Students with disabilities would lose the opportunity to be educated side-by-side with their neurotypical peers. The single experience shared by all Americans would be no more. The future of civil society in America would be in doubt.
Many parents of students with disabilities provide extra educational services for their children. The costs of such services are now deductible on federal taxes. Project 2025 proposes to eliminate that deduction. (Page 697).
The new system would be constructed by each family. Those with greater wealth could buy far better educational services for their children. Children would not have the experience of learning together with students who come from different backgrounds, different races, different religions, and different points of view. Future citizens would not have been taught the same things. We know from history that when children with disabilities are segregated, they are poorly educated, or not educated at all. They become invisible to other children. They are treated as other, as inferior, as unworthy of societal support.
The promise of Project 2025 is not merely a decentralization and a diminution of public support for students with disabilities. It is a promise to a return to the segregation, institutionalization, and marginalization of individuals with disabilities.
Project 2025 incorporates the rhetoric of Moms for Liberty, stating “In our schools, the question of parental authority over their children’s education is a simple one: Schools serve parents, not the other way around. That is, of course, the best argument for universal school choice—a goal all conservatives and conservative Presidents must pursue. But even before we achieve that long-term goal, parents’ rights as their children’s primary educators should be nonnegotiable in American schools. States, cities and counties, school boards, union bosses, principals, and teachers who disagree should be immediately cut off from federal funds.” (Page 5). In practice this means that a small group of vocal parents can veto the curriculum developed by educators.
