We don’t have enough information. As long as she kept her work in school separated from her OnlyFans, I see nothing wrong with her having a second job.

This sentence is ambiguous:

Among them is allegedly posting material on public social media accounts that “involves the sexualization of the school environment.”

Is this implying that she took any of her OnlyFans pictures while inside the school? That wouldn’t be okay. But what it is referring to, as she alleges, is that she took pictures while wearing a school uniform, then the only thing that matters in my mind is whether it was a generic school uniform or the specific uniform used at the school she worked at.

We are generally very hypocritical in matters surrounding porn and sex work.

Good analysis and I tend to agree. There are certainly lines she could cross, but based on the information given it doesn’t seem like she did. To those fearing children can be exposed to this, I say, we all know what OnlyFans is by now. There’s a lot of talk going on about letting parents parent, well, here’s your chance.

She suspects a TikTok video of her in a schoolgirl outfit may have been a particular problem for the district.

Yeah. I could see that being a worry.

MacDonald said being an education assistant only earned her $1,000 every two weeks after deductions. She insisted that while on duty at school, she was solely focused on helping students and had never been the subject of complaints about her behaviour with students.

This is probably one of the most important points from the article.

Also:

She says there needs to be more attention given to the low pay of education assistants and there needs to be less stigma around sex work. She doesn’t regret speaking out.

“I feel strongly that in this day and age, we should be able to do what we want as long as it’s not illegal,” MacDonald said. “I’m not hurting anybody.”

Good for her.

She essentially was fetishizing her job online for money. I can definitely see that getting into some areas that would result in violating some sort of employment policy they agreed to.

“You don’t pay me enough to tell me what to do when I’m not at work” seems like the best response.

Perhaps they should pay teachers enough that they don’t feel the need to take on second jobs.

As I said elsewhere in response to this story:

What’s needed is for a bunch of education workers to hold a public rally somewhere off of school grounds with as many people as possible naked from the waist up.

Baring of breasts in public is legal in Canada. It should not be legal to fire someone for engaging in legal activities while not at the disposal of the employer. If what she was doing was legal, then it’s nobody’s business but hers.
