Seriously? Maybe a thread for the unemployed, underemployed, and those whom for whatever reason have no job and no adequate means to support themselves or their family. It includes folks on meagre pensions including young students with massive debts who live in a society where their governments are mean, penny pinching and do not value education .....unless you pay.  I have respect for most teachers but my interest are in those who are suffering silently because they are not valued in this society. Teachers are part of the entitled classes who happily receive paid leave and conditions that most in society do not receive.

Wow Hemmers, you're in an interesting headspace if you're going to go on a rage spiral anytime a conversation starts about 'hey, I do a thing, does anyone else do this thing'?

You would fit right in teaching with that socialist attitude.

Staggering how some people can criticize teachers and their supposed perks, yet have never taught in a school! Because we have all been to school we all have an opinion. It's the equivalent of me criticizing an electrician, for example, despite the fact I know little about the job and do not have the skills. Let's try to leave our comments to the football.
