My wife was a teacher for 29 years.
Got every summer off, two weeks at Christmas, a week in the Spring and every holiday. Went into work a couple of hours later than me every day and was always home earlier. Never had to work a weekend.
When she was first starting she worked at home at night a little bit grading and planning but after getting a little experience she didn't have to do that any more.
Great job for he sandwich maker. Her salary paid our combined Federal, State and Local taxes for the year so that we could live on my Engineer's salary.
Never once complained about the pay.
Suck it up Buttercups.
What did she teach? P.E.?
Either that or she must have been a lousy teacher. Was this was 20 years ago?
Your wife never attended a sporting event, play, or exhibition on the weekend? Never had to grade papers? Never had to enter grades into a computer? Never had to plan a lesson or a unit?
Sorry Moon Bat but she was a great teacher. She won an award from the Jimmy Carter Administration for being a good teacher and she went to a White House ceremony to get the award. The award was for teaching disadvantage kids. You know, the hard stuff.
What else you got Moon Bat?
I am a Moon Bat, but your wife received an award from an administration that was in office 40 years ago?
I graduated from high school 40 years ago! I guess your job as a typewriter repairman made for a good income.
Totally clueless doesn't even begin to describe how out of touch you are.
I have been in the classroom since 1996. Nothing today compares to when I first started.
