[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get a summer job and it won’t be a problem. I’d agree to make 30% less money if I had summers off. [/quote] Oh yes, the “summers off” statement. When you work 60+ hours a week at a job that provides absolutely no down time and no flexibility, those UNPAID summers become the only break you get. And many of us end up working job #2. It’s not like we are lazing around the pool. And on topic: please don’t get me anything. I’m a professional and I’m simply doing my job. [/quote] Literally everyone is working long hours. Literally everyone would NOT complain about summers off. [/quote] PLEASE don’t use “literally”. I know plenty of people making 2 or 3 times more than me who work about 20 hours a week. There are threads under “jobs and careers” here on DCUM where people admit to doing 2-3 hours of work a day. And the offer still stands: if you want summers off, then quit your job and enter the classroom. We have openings because teachers are fleeing. Why haven’t you done that yet? Stop complaining and join an alternative route to education program today. [/quote] Um... I went to college. I'm literally never going to be a teacher. And the folks you are referring to are few and far between (2-3 hrs of work). Don't be so dramatic. [/quote] So the summers off you keep yammering about aren't so attractive to you after all. Got it. [/quote]
