[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers do get 2 months off.  It is unique. [/quote]

Teachers don’t get paid for two months.

I work 60 hour weeks for 40 weeks a year. When summer comes, I have to get another job for 2 months so I can pay my bills. I’m also paying (out of my own pocket) for classes to stay certified as a teacher. Summers aren’t the extended paid vacation many non-teachers think they are.

I don’t get two months off. I’m not PAID for those two months. It isn’t vacation time.

60 hours a week x 40 weeks = 2400 hours
40 hours a week x 50 weeks = 2000 hours

It appears I’m working far more in 10 months than a 12-month position.

If I have it good, again: join me! We lost 3 teachers mid year. I guess they didn’t see how good they had it. That means their positions are open, so you are welcome to apply! Please do, so I don’t have to do their work on top of mine again.[/quote]
