transcripts for all episodes and more on benl language.com I&#39;m glad you can make it today in this episode we&#39;re going to be talking about no school November because today is the first day of November and um there&#39;s this thing in the US that happens every November that ends up being called no school November because we end up having a lot of days off in November from like national holidays and so it ends up feeling like there&#39;s not very much school in November um and so actually let me look up no school November um I think that&#39;s going to come up um oh it isn&#39;t actually huh there aren very many results actually online um all of them are from Portland which is where I&#39;m from which is very interesting so we&#39;ll talk about that in a second actually because this is really interesting but um in November there just ends up being a lot of little holidays that um are off of school federal holidays where you don&#39;t have to go to school as a kid which means that it it it feels like there&#39;s L I just said that I don&#39;t know why I said that again um so a mostly it&#39;s like Thanksgiving and there like a couple more I don&#39;t actually know off the top of my head there&#39;s Veterans Day um election day I don&#39;t think you get off school um but yeah there&#39;s huh there&#39;s less than I thought now that I&#39;m looking at the list here so let&#39;s see um holidays in November November um let&#39;s see if that brings up other things I don&#39;t no I want to look in the US please um English sorry let me get this this thing pulled up um because I feel like there&#39;s more than I have on my list um this so okay there&#39;s a bunch on here oh jeez this is not very helpful what are this is listing everything so November 1st is All Saints Day extra miles day international pet groomer Appreciation Day National author&#39;s day these aren&#39;t real holidays um I wanted to know what the actual holidays are in November please um is that a thing I can look up on the internet if not I&#39;m just going to talk about uh talk about it huh it it doesn&#39;t look like there&#39;s actually that many maybe I&#39;m just wrong um because it it doesn&#39;t there&#39;s just like regular not interesting holidays us election day um and then that&#39;s like it okay this is just not a thing I am making stuff up apparently huh I would have sworn that yeah cuz there&#39;s only there&#39;s Veterans Day that&#39;s a real one that happens on November 11th I think and then there&#39;s Thanksgiving which is a whole week off of school which isn&#39;t as much as like a December because December has less school so um maybe this is just a thing that started in Portland and I&#39;m just completely lying to you that could be that&#39;s very possible um which is I didn&#39;t realize so we&#39;re all learning today but I guess I will talk about the no school November thing because that is a thing when I Googled it it did come up um it came up as some stuff in Portland that happened uh back when I was in school and it&#39;s the reason that I I guess we know this and that&#39;s when there were um strikes there were teacher strikes in November which led to us having basically no school it was like a week of school in the entire month because the teachers Were Striking so I guess we might as well talk about strikes for a second so a strike is when a group of workers um together decide not to work they say um this is unfair we&#39;re not getting paid enough or whatever it is we&#39;re not going to work until we get better something and Portland Public Schools this is the the school district in in Portland um back in what probably like 14 2015 something like that there were um some teacher strikes there some relatively uh prominent ones in at least in in Portland in a lot of schools had no school because there were no the teachers didn&#39;t show up um because they were getting very unfair pay very unfair hours and very unfair expectations so that&#39;s actually where the name no school November comes from but I thought it was a real thing in general guess it&#39;s not but it there is there are a lot of holidays at the end of the year that&#39;s true so November October November December that you generally get a lot of time off um from school because of Thanksgiving and Christmas and new years&#39;s and all that so there&#39;s like four or five weeks in total that you just don&#39;t go to school in the end of the year but it&#39;s not just November that&#39;s something that I made up um and I guess then in that case I&#39;ll talk a little bit more about strikes because they are we we saw a fairly big one recently um the the Dock Workers in uh New England some part of of of the E of the east coast of the US um Long Island something like that it was in close to New York but the New Jersey it was New Jersey I think it was in New Jersey but anyways a the strike was was for the Dock Workers the people that basically unload the all of the goods that come into the US via boats and they were striking because because they are worried about their um the future of their jobs because of increasing Automation and artificial intelligence and they weren&#39;t seeing the wage increases that they um need and something very interesting about that is that a lot of people in the media especially so the media were talking about how um it&#39;s their fault they&#39;re being greedy it&#39;s a bad thing etc etc but really they should be seen as a um a good example because they&#39;ve been striking they they&#39;ve had this very strong Dock Workers Union for many many years and if you look at the their wage increases they have always gone up as they should as they get more productive the the workers get more productive they they produce more money for the company they get paid more which doesn&#39;t happen in other Industries in most other Industries people get paid either the same or less um usually uh less because of inflation but sometimes just actually less and so they were just doing what they always do when there&#39;s an a potential issue for their jobs or that their future is that they strike and they get paid more for the work that they do which they should be doing right and the same similar thing happened with with Portland Public Schools where the teachers Were Striking because they were do are doing very hard difficult work every single day um and not getting paid very much at all it&#39;s pretty well known in the US that teachers get paid garbage they get paid barely anything um a a starting like a even a a starting teacher salary is is really low for the amount of time and effort and work that they have to do it&#39;s the teaching profession is is not doesn&#39;t exist for people that are interested in having a good solid career that they will be able to retire well after working for however many years right it is it is set up for basically for people that really want to be teachers and want to teach um and they&#39;re sort of in some ways taking advantage of the people that um Everybody interacts with right everybody goes to school everybody has teachers that are really important in their lives um and yet they get paid very little and so that was sort of the basis of of the teacher strike and um why I guess we get the the term no school November and so basically it&#39;s it&#39;s important to realize that strikes are um almost always good for for the workers if they&#39;re organized enough and there there&#39;s like a good purpose behind it if you&#39;re just don&#39;t want to go to work that&#39;s a different thing that&#39;s not a strike um but it also is is meant to protect people that might lose their jobs right so in in um the the Dock Workers thing some of them are going to lose their jobs to automation that&#39;s going to happen but part of the strike is that they&#39;re saying okay if you&#39;re going to remove these jobs we need you to also take care of the people whose jobs you remove because a company will will if they can do something cheaper auto automatically with a robot they will they just will do that and they will fire the person that had that job they don&#39;t care the whole purpose of the company is to make more money but the person that has that job should get some of that benefit at least and be given however much time to find a new job that they&#39;re going to do or to be um adequately um paid in order to to be like okay you thought you had the job now you don&#39;t you so uh we&#39;re going to give you whatever 3 months of pay um in order to that you can find a new job or to take this course to get to get more a new skill for a new job or whatever it is right and so that sort of thing is also really important to make sure that you have in place right so as we&#39;re going into the um this age of artificial intelligence a lot of people are going to lose their jobs with no protection because they aren&#39;t in a union they don&#39;t have a they don&#39;t have a a strong negotiating power against um the companies that just want to make more money or want to cut costs and I think a similar thing is is going to be happening with with teachers in some way we we&#39;ll see how it actually plays out um but uh it is important that teachers uh get paid fairly and are around because they&#39;re so important in our lives and that we don&#39;t have more no school novembers for kids um even though I I swear I thought that was a real thing where there was more holidays but there&#39;s really just not that many um it&#39;s a couple of them but anyways that&#39;s my weird false episode I guess sorry for lying to you in the title but I hope that you found this interesting anyways um if you enjoyed it let me know down in the comments below but other than that I will see you again tomorrow for another November episode of a daily dose of English have a great rest of your day bye-bye a
