This is frankly a stupid statement. Have you ever heard of the
civil service system? This is what the step system in education
is based on, and it is the ONLY fair way to compensate teaching
employees. Otherwise, you have a situation where cronies and
favorites of unaccountable principals get paid more than people
who aren't butt kissers.
Public sector and private sector employment are not the same.
BTW, most businesses hire you and negotiate your pay based on
experience and education.
Frankly, you have no business being an administrator.
