[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your situation sounds like every job I’ve had, including my first one, where I was paid less than teachers. I put in 10-12 hours or more a day, worked weekends, was on call during holidays, and had to represent myself as an expert to customers on a subject I had only cursory knowledge of…. [/quote] But then imagine that at your job you have to work in a room of 20-30 people who don’t actually want to be there, constantly interrupt you, and then you get blasted on the internet by swaths of people for not doing enough. Oh and you can’t use the bathroom when you want. My first job out of college also paid less than teachers when I started and I had ridiculously long hours. However, teaching is much harder than that job ever was even when I was sometimes at the office until midnight. I actually love teaching and find it rewarding, but it is incredibly harder than a desk job for many reasons. [/quote]
