San Diego/Tijuana border closed at 8am tomorrow morning
Just heard on the news that there will be a big protest at the border in the morning. Entering and exiting Baja will be shut down at 8am. If any teams are planning to go to Baja for the weekend be sure to cross in Tecate. It didn't say how long the protest will be.

They work around 150 days a year, get full benefits, medical, dental, credit,3 vacation periods a year etc... They retire at 50 years old, with a severance package and still receive full salary for the rest of their life, since theyre proud to have a 6th grade education level in the country, theyre protesting that theyre gonna roll back the retirement age up to 60 for men and 58 for women over the next 11 years...
labor unions have the country highjacked...They should be bean bagged at the border

These are people who HAVE a college education. I'm sure they could make much more money as doctors, accountants, attorney's and other professionals. The education of a society is the most important step in growing as a nation....Maybe all of the teachers should quit and then the level of education would drop to kindergarten....I wonder how life would be for you without the educated people listed above. Hopefully your kids will receive the very best education possible and help to build the nation of Mexico.
I fixed all of your spelling mistakes except for 1, can you find it? Nice one sentence paragraph too. No wonder you don't value education......

In Mexico, goverment school teachers usually dont have college degrees...they have a teaching degree not close to college. i used to be a teacher for 2 years, my brother is in charge of post graduate studies at Cetys University in Mexicali (ranked 3rd in the country). I respect the teaching profesion and I agree that Education is the most important thing we can offer our kids.
Mexican union teachers...whole other ballgame...
Regarding the corrected mistakes, cant find what you corrected, let alone the mistake left in !!. But its not too bad for my second language...
