Do you even know any teachers? Because this is false for 99% of teachers.

Yes, teachers have summers off, but summer is shorter and shorter each year. My guess is OP is talking about weekends or breaks, because weekdays are completely draining.

Think really hard and you will figure this out.


If they have families they wouldn’t be able to. Single teachers maybe.


Even people with kids can work evenings.

Demanding has nothing to do with it. I am a single parent and I don’t make enough as a teacher to pay the bills so I have to make extra money somehow.

Sometimes people will families have more than one job - geez.


Generally not teachers with families bc it’s so demanding.

I don’t because I can’t afford to live anywhere close to where I teach. I usually dash on the weekends (Saturday and sometimes Friday although I’m exhausted then).

I heard that this is not uncommon in this area, teacher doing delivery side job on the weekend.

speak for yourself. Some people have more stamina than others. Some people are workaholics. Some people like to keep busy and make money while keeping busy.

When I was a new graduate many years ago I worked two jobs, low paid foot in door office job during the day and waitress by night. I worked with several others in similar situations of various ages, teachers, hill workers, etc.

Some married with kids and some not. None of us were working two jobs forever. It was a bridge to the next phase, making extra money for some extra goal or another.

Nothing wrong with hustling while your young or at any time in your life really. Especially if you know it’s only temporary

Nobody said anything was wrong with it. You are really defensive. There aren’t that many teachers that could actually pull this off with a family. Without having something suffer. Are you actually a teacher?

Sometimes my family has to suffer because I don’t make enough from teaching to pay all of my bills. I’m not alone.
