[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers do get 2 months off. It is unique. [/quote] And winter break and spring break and many holidays. It’s not fair to compare salaries without taking that into account. And most professionals work “after hours” too.[/quote]most professionals answer emails after 4pm[/quote] Are you claiming teachers don’t? I don’t get a moment during the school day to answer emails, so they pile up. I respond to ALL emails at home each night. (You do realize I’m teaching all day? That I’m not sitting at my desk on my computer?)[/quote]our teachers don’t. They let them all sit overnight and answer them at 9am during morning meeting. By then the homework can’t be worked on![/quote] I’m the PP. I respond to emails each night, but I’m rather disgusted by your reply. I have no work/life balance. I work 60-65 hours a week. I take from my OWN family to answer those emails. You are upset at your teachers for waiting a whole 14-16 hours to respond to you? Perhaps they are doing what I should be doing: feeding their own family, helping their own kids with homework, walking their dogs, etc. Your sense of entitlement to a teacher’s off-hours makes me want to stop responding at night. I don’t get paid a enough for you to expect me to be on-call at all hours.[/quote]
