[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They aren’t just paying me for busy work. They are also paying me to be available to solve problems that come up. To have access to my expertise. [/quote] Perhaps you should be paid only for when your expertise is actually used. This thread frustrates me because it’s showing how severely imbalanced careers are. I’m a teacher who is highly skilled and highly credentialed. My employer needs my skills 55-60 hours a week, sometimes more. I solve problems that come up 15-20 times a day. And my work is extremely important. This imbalance is driving so many people out of teaching. Why should I work so hard for so little when I can get a job sitting around for more pay? (Perhaps I’m overqualified?)[/quote] So get another job then. Bottom line - the market doesn’t need to pay teachers a lot because actually quite a lot of people are capable and willing to do it. Because it’s actually not that bad - summers off is HUGE and no, you’re not actually working all summer - so get over yourself. [/quote] I'm not a teacher, but it's impressive how much wrong you managed to cram into one post. [/quote]
