Part time job/not enough work? 80 days is a third of the year...



School Teacher?


Yup. As much time off as that is, we still lose staff members each year; the workload is horrid.

80 days off which you can work to get paid wouldn't be paid vacation right?


It's paid; the ~30 days I mention are a different job, just under the same employer (i.e., summer school). Some teachers work all summer long at several different jobs and don't have any time off beyond winter and spring break and random days through the school year. That sounds awful to me, but many need / want the money.

It is not paid. You are under contract for somewhere around 190 days per year. By comparison, I am not under contract, but am paid for 260 days per year, but I have 33 days of PTO. You do not get paid the days you don't work. They might average the paychecks so you get paid for 12 months, but you are 100% free to do almost anything you want over the summer. I am not.

Actually, I do. If you don't like it, you're free to change careers, though.

LOL. My husband's paychecks in the summer would disagree with you. It sounds like you're bitter over having much less time off each year.

You sound pathetic. If you want to get paid during time off in the summer, no one's stopping you from signing up for a teacher ed program.

The amount of vacation I get will go up the longer I'm there.


You think 5 days a year is a lot of sick time?


Yes, yes I do. Otherwise I wouldn't have said that.

Well, after reading all the other replies, I hope you see it's not.

14 weeks? That is a quarter of the year. Is that teaching?

6 holidays and 5 days paid leave per year. It's not much but better than some.
