[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not much sympathy. Teachers typically have summer gigs while we all work through the summer, tutor and get cash on the side, pensions, full health insurance, school break time off AND PTO and sick time. Am I missing something?? I work a normal job and get 3 weeks a year and a bit of sick time and 6 holidays. My vacations are college visits to show demonstrated interest. We managed to save from when kid was little for full pay T10. Best feeling to tell my kid we thought about his future.[/quote] You're nuts. The "teachers get the summer off" is a myth. Teachers work through the evenings and weekends for very little pay but an enormous amount of stress teaching your kids during the school year. Summers are often used for PD and catching up on regular routine things such as going to the dentist. I never heard of a teacher taking a summer gig that paid substantially. Have some sympathy.[/quote]
