Surprise: PA College Slashes Instructors' Hours to Avoid Obamacare
Breitbart ^ | 21 Nov 2012 | Wynton Hall

Posted on 11/21/2012 6:13:08 PM PST by george76

Pennsylvania's Community College of Allegheny County (CCAC) is slashing the hours of 400 adjunct instructors, support staff, and part-time instructors to dodge paying for Obamacare.

"It's kind of a double whammy for us because we are facing a legal requirement [under the new law] to get health care and if the college is reducing our hours, we don't have the money to pay for it," said adjunct biology professor Adam Davis.

On Tuesday, CCAC employees were notified that Obamacare defines full-time employees as those working 30 hours or more per week and that on Dec. 31 temporary part-time employees will be cut back to 25 hours.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!

So many of these profs are flaming libtards that I could care less. Serves them right.

Can you tell I had to sit through a BS CCAC English course and was lectured endlessly about how evil white male Republicans were?

So glad I only needed 3 credits from that godforsaken hell hole.

Welcome to Obamaville.

I guess some "edjukatud" folks never thought this through very far

The Obama administration appreciates the support from all the useful idiots at CCAC...now, suck it.

There's a price to pay when you dance with the devil.

Happy Thanksgiving, George, to you and yours!

I got a B on my senior thesis- my screaming liberal, Birkenstock wearing, VW Bug driving professor argued with me during my presentation that we brought 9/11 on ourselves.

Of course, the porn star student with the fake (*)(*) got an A+. Her thesis was on Anime. Go figure.

It would do my heart good to see this guy get his bennies slashed. I would even send him a congratulations card on his vote helping to ensure his lack of benefits. Heh.

Sympathy? Very little. Worldwide it is the intellectuals that support the progressive (aka communist) agenda and then are the first burned by its implementation. Think Russia and the communist take over with the intellectuals the first to be killed and sent to the gulag. Think China with the cultural revolution. Think Cambodia and the killing fields. Think with trepidation, the United States’ future with the anointed ones in power now!

Gee, Pelosi said we have to pass it to find out what's in it. Many of the "edjukatud" still haven't bothered to find out what's in it. The more their pocketbook is affected, the more they'll learn. Slow learners, bad teachers.

Sometimes Anime is more important.

So, you get any pictures?

I sometimes wonder if these progressives don’t feel at least a bit like cannibals eating turkey on Thanksgiving :)

Keep in mind that this is the county that Pittsburgh is in. Democrat run for 60 years.
