Maybe the reasoning was this...?

They have two brains so they're two students learning.

They have one body so it's just one working

That’s it. They’re only doing one role. It’s not like they’re filling two teaching positions.

If two separate people were teaching together they would not get the same paycheck. It's the same thing here, they do not share a mind. They probably even teach different subjects, take turns. Teaching involves lectures, they are not speaking in unison

Yes but end of the day the school wanted and needed one teacher. Not two.

They can either take a single job together or find two roles that requires two minds and one body, then do that and be paid twice for it.

Then they need to hire one teacher. They chose to hire two. So they need to pay both. Simple as that. It should not be between no job and getting fucked over

Exactly.

"It should not be between no job and getting fucked over"
if only that were the case

u/Inevitable_Ad_7236 1d ago

your solution is that they simply wouldn't be hired lol

One teacher per classroom. There's no reason for them to pay for two teachers to handle the workload of one teacher.

I'm sure their lawyers would have figured this out.

That literally happens ALL the time! There are tons of classrooms with two teachers who share the workload, I was literally in one lol. We both got paid

How do they share the workload? Does the one just stand around in silence while the other teaches before they switch off?

So... then they would never get hired.

Simple as that.

Is it though? If it were you'd think that they'd have been able to find a school willing to do that, and we wouldn't be talking about it right now.

If they needed to pay both, then they simply wouldn’t hire them.

u/antwan_benjamin 1d ago

So your solution is they should not have been offered this job at all? You realize there are very few jobs that would be OK giving 2 paychecks to 1 body, right? Their predicament makes them incapable of doing more work than 1 person could do.

They applied for that job and not hiring them for it, if they're the best applicant, is literally illegal and highly discriminatory.

What do you want here?
