Hypothetically, if a colleague has repeatedly demonstrated the utter lack of reading comprehension skills (like pulling the same door labelled “push” for the hundredth time), what job could one suggest for them where this “disability” wouldn’t be detrimental?

      You have to remember the lack of a real wage that yank teachers have, their inability to unionise, etc. They have very low entry standards, but mostly it’s the pay over there. Pay for a minimum wage teacher, you get a minimum wage teacher. Anyone with an education gets a better paid job. I hear stories about their teachers getting a second job to pay the rent. Never a good sign in any job.

      That’s just my experience after working in a school for the last year. It doesn’t make me hopeful for the future.
