[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]60 hours a week x 38 weeks = 2280 hours per year.

[b]40 hours a week x 52 weeks = 2080 hours per year.[/b]

A full time year round employee who works 44 hours a week works the same amount as a teacher.  Most professionals I know work this and then some.  I get the exhaustion that comes from long days with other people's children, but the amount of complaining is really unwarranted.[/quote]

How many professionals work 52 weeks a year?  Most people get some kind of vacation time.  And most professionals earn considerably more than teachers. [/quote]

Teachers need to realize that the average HOUSEHOLD income in the US is $59k. So this whole boo hoo complaining about being underpaid at $65k is completely unfounded. Especially when you throw in 10 weeks vacation. Grow up or change professions. [/quote]

If teaching is so well paid with so much time off, why aren't you one?[/quote]

I would rather gouge my eyes out with a fire poker than work around petulant whiny self claimed victims. [/quote]

Ah, too cowardly to do the work. Got it.[/quote]
