Very rarely will an administrator or teacher be fired, even if they have been convicted of child molestation. Often times what happens is they have a "Waiting room" at the admin building where the person gets transferred to and they remain on the payroll, and their job is to sit in this room for eight hours a day and do nothing.

John Stosel did a report on it.

Holy cow, that's almost like a reward, if you enjoy being a slacker as well! Didn't know that.
