[quote=Anonymous]Similar thing with the Chicago teachers. Their AVERAGE salary is $78,000 - plus all that free time off - and they scream for raises, too. And what about the benefits? They contribute something like 2% to their pension, while I get no pension and just have to save with a 401k. Plus, the medical benefits as retirees. I was complaining to a retired teacher friend of mine (MoCo) about the fact that Obamacare won't cover my PT (which will cost me THOUSANDS), and she said....I know how you feel. I have a $20 co-pay, and I'm going to end up paying over $100 for my PT." I didn't argue with her, but merely said, "wow. I wish all I had to pay was $20!" I really don't think teachers know how well compensated they are - either during their career or during retirement.[/quote]
