[quote=Anonymous]To the “I do my 8 hours and still answer hundreds of emails” people: teaching was my 2nd career. I, too, worked a reasonable 40-45 hours a week for the same that I made working god knows how many hours a week and I came home crying at least once a week. Especially when it comes to a right to work state like Virginia where teacher contracts mean zilch and you are expected (but it’s not in your contract and obviously you don’t get any more money) to regularly take on three - four hours of work unrelated to your actual classes at the last minute, you do not get to sit down to answer emails. I taught in Fairfax for five years and I legitimately didn’t have time to take attendance (because I couldn’t sit down) until I got home several times a week. Yes, there are some amazing miracle teachers who do get back to all students and parents right away. Those teachers have made cuts in other parts of their lives. [/quote]
