45% want more pay and 35% want less work. It's all right there in the OP.
The reason people tend to ignore teachers is because they complain persistently about issues they think are new and original but are actually exactly the same as pretty much every profession. Just because nobody writes articles about the plight of trash collectors and moritcians, it doesn't mean those folks don't also want more pay and less work. They just don't have an annoyingly vocal union to complain on their behalf. Kudos to the lobbyists in that regard I guess.

Teacher's union? In Texas?
Not much of a factor in this State, and I'm fine with that. The industrial unions have more power in Texas and, in my area of the State the union members, like OCAW, have gone on strike several times during my lifetime. Teachers, or any State employee, tries that they are fired. It's the law in Texas. And I'm fine with that as well.

Unlike “pretty much every other profession0 every working parent depends on teachers for childcare if nothing else. Teachers are essential to society for several reasons.

If your boss asked you to do 20% more work with no additional pay, what would your response be?
