As we come up on “forget how much you complained I’m off for 3 months summer” for the teachers. I just want to remind them to keep the same we work harder than anyone energy while they’re at the cantina on a Tuesday.

I fully welcome you to come teach my 6 math classes of 35 8th graders in the inner city big guy. And btw, you can’t just send kids to the office. There’s practically no discipline in schools anymore. So it is quite hilarious that you’re on here crying that another profession gets 3 months off. When we call home, parents say “I don’t know what to tell you, they’re worse at home.” Rarely do teachers complain about pay. They complain about the conditions. They complain that the system is broken and that we are expected to teach 8th grade math to a get who is at a 4th grade math level and a 3rd maturity level.

I love my job and truly I don’t complain about it. I make enough money to provide for my family and I work in an air conditioned room. What on earth do I have to complain about? A lot of folks have it a lot worse. But, you belittling an entire profession because the one perk of their job is different from yours is out of touch and arrogant.

Someone is bitter….

But the comp isn’t comparable, so your point is moot. You also speak about which job is harder without experience (or at least you haven’t disclosed any experience being a classroom teacher) which makes your viewpoint inherently biased (grass is always greener on the other side).

It may be easier for you, who knows. Different people have different inherent talents that make them better at one thing or another.

But it’s not a universal truth that teaching is somehow a better or easier job.

Weird because all the teachers I know also work in the summer.

Some of them legitimately have a second job because they don't always get paid all year. But there are also in service days before and after the kids are in school, decorating classrooms, putting together curriculums and materials, continuing education, etc.

It depends where they teach. In the Northeast, states like NJ, NY, CT, etc. actually pay their teachers quite well after about 5 years plus overly generous benefits. But to OP’s point why get into a job that you claim to do “for the children” to then always complain about pay?

My catholic school teachers made borderline poverty wages and never once complained. They taught truly for the love of it so maybe the complainers need to reevaluate their life choices

I wouldn’t automatically say that because I’d do their job for my salary doesn’t mean I think they’re underpaid for their own job.

I actually think teachers can especially in my area, of New York, they’re paid pretty fairly especially when you consider the hours worked.

Teachers go in early and stay late but that’s getting there at 7 and leaving at 4. 1/4 of the year tax accountants are 7am-12am. There’s no scenario in teaching that will require that time.
