Do your really think that everyone else only works 40 hours per week without any after work effort? Really?

I'm a teacher who works 35.5 hours per week and earns $55K. My husband is a government employee who works 40 hours per week and earns a little over 100K. He NEVER brings work home. If he is called in to work on the weekend (special event) they give him comp time.

And that is where the term "Close enough for government work" came from.  Also, does your husband get three months off every year?[/quote]

I think he has 5 weeks of (paid) vacation leave a year, but he can take them whenever he wants.   He doesn't have to take them in the summer.

He also gets 13 days of sick leave, and of course all federal holidays.

So I get 3 more weeks of vacation than he does, plus of course the weeks the kids get off (Christmas, Wed and Friday of Thanksgiving, and a week at spring break.

The biggest benefit to me, honestly, of being a teacher is getting snow days off so we don't have to worry about who will watch the kids those days.
