[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a former teacher. My perspective is [b]1) teachers underestimate how overworked everyone else is. They think they’re uniquely working unpaid overtime when just about anyone in a salaried role is feeling the same pressure, especially if they want to be regarded as good as their job. Same as teachers. [/b]2) A ton of this, teachers bring on themselves. Take decorating rooms. No one is making them do that. You choose to go blow $200 at Michaels and then spend a weekend taping kitschy crap to the walls. [/quote] Thank you for this. I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone in this forum recognize this reality for other salaried workers, especially non-federal government employees. We earn low wages compared to the private sector and routinely work hours for which we are not compensated. [/quote]
