“You don’t pay me enough to tell me what to do when I’m not at work” seems like the best response.
This is so sad but the worst part is that we pay our EA’s so horribly they have to supplement their income with an OnlyFans account? Let that sink in everyone.
I don’t think the following should be discounted:
She suspects a TikTok video of her in a schoolgirl outfit may have been a particular problem for the district.
Sexualizing schoolkids by someone that has power in school is a bad look.
I don’t think we’d be okay with a male teacher/EA sexualizing school uniforms.
So are you going to go to all the porn sites and complain about this sort of content?
The problem isn’t (necessarily) the content, the problem is the power differential. A teacher/EA sexualizing students is not ok.
If she’d avoided school related content, I think this would be a harder conversation.
As I mentioned elsewhere, EA pay seems to be the root of the issue in this case. She said she’s selling on OnlyFans because she isn’t paid enough. EAs should be paid better.
How can they fire her for this? Are they not opening themselves up for a wrongful termination suit since she didn’t do anything illegal or violate the employment agreement?
I think this does open them up to a wrongful termination suit. But I also highly suspect the employment agreement listed something vague about ‘a public image that positively reflects on the employer’ or some shit like that. It almost always does for teachers and other workers in schools. Might not hold up in court, but I bet it was in the employment agreement in some form.
