[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I became a teacher, especially in a LCOL area. 7:30am-3:00pm workday, a gazillion days off, summers off, weekends off.[/quote] Trolling? If it were this great of a job, would we all be leaving? I never work 7:30-3. Maybe 6:30-4:30, and again from 7-9. Daily. Weekends off? No, that’s grading time. Summers? Unpaid, not “off.” [/quote] Oh please. You are spending a few hours on the weekends grading papers in your sweatpants while you watch Netflix. Plenty of people have to put in overtime and weekend hours actually AT work, fully on the job, and they can’t take every holiday, weekend, and summer off, even unpaid. It isn’t even an option. You want to take 8 weeks off from most other job, and aren’t using FMLA, you’ll be fired and replaced. Teachers work hard, but not harder than most other job. They have a comparable workload to many many other jobs. Plus a lot more time off. [/quote]
