I know it doesn't serve the "schools bad" narrative, but this onboarding glitch effects about 400 teachers out of about 13,000 (so about 3%) and the missed checks were either covered directly by the school, where possible, or through $2000 advances from DOE today. No one should be missing a mortgage or credit car payment from this hiccup. Seem like a strange level of "world is going to hell in a handbasket" catastrophizing happening here on Punaweb.
Be more like W.N. Wahine - assume the best and ask questions?
↓ Oh look at that fancy name color - care to introduce yourself? (I for one welcome our new Moderator overlords and would like to remind them that I can be helpful in rounding up others ... ;)
As to why it's news, probably the fact that it is unprecedented and a bit surprising so worth a TV blurb, and also ragebait gets clicks? Looks at all the !! it's generated already. More controversy, more clicks, more ads served. Some people just want to have somewhere to focus all their anger and discontent, so the market will provide and profit.
