[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a local government employee (not FCPS) I would beg to differ that $75k is not in line with other professions...I work 5/days a week and get federal holidays off- however any other time I have 15 days of PTO to use - in addition my job requires after hours work all the time...thats not "planned" or accounted for until the calendar comes out a month ahead of the meetings. While I would never say a teachers job is easy- I wouldn't quite say they are treated unfairly. Many teachers I know love summers off and it is a main driver for them- so to use that against the world is a little skewed. [/quote] I agree with this. I also work for local government and many people are working a full year schedule at this salary or lower salaries. Yes with masters degrees too. [/quote] Salary was never one of my main concerns. There were years in which I thought the raise/COLA (if it was even given) was insufficient, but for the most part I always felt the salary was decent. Recently Retired Teacher [/quote] My whole career has been in non-profits and the COLA/raise is never sufficient to keep up with actual cost of living.[/quote] Ok, and you realized that. Not sure what your point is here. [/quote]
