We are running on Dell PowerEdge servers . No its not , we don ' t have a basement <| sep |> My issue with competition . I teach in a poor school district surrounded by wealthy districts . There is no way that I can compete . Poverty is messy . Competition doesn ' t fix that . It turns into wolves fighting over a stripped down carcass for a last scrap . Also . Harvard studied unions and ' bad ' teaching . Unionized areas get rid of poor teachers at a higher rate then non unionized areas . When someone is treated and paid like a professional it is much easier to expect performance . <| sep |> They did . That ' s when we got the Lindt cafe siege . <| sep |> Communicate with teammates , add those who do good , stack with them for a reque and repeat . Bam . You now are no longer solo quing . This is what I do and works a charm .
