Summary

This quote is an argument against the practice of "last hired - first fired," which refers to the union policy of layoffs where the most recently hired employees are the first to lose their jobs during downsizing or budget cuts. The quote suggests that this policy should be replaced with a merit-based system of hiring and firing in which the most qualified candidates are chosen for employment and retained based on their skills and abilities. It highlights the desire to prioritize having the most talented individuals in the classroom.
