Public school teachers are underpaid and under appreciated

10 months a year. 8 hours a day. Shitty parents who won’t invest their time into education, but send their kid to school sick as hell.
$20k-$40k a year. It’s turned into a glorified underpaid daycare.

Public school teachers average ~$40k per "year" starting salary. ~$53k/year prorated over 12 months. That's what I made starting out as an electrical engineer 5 years ago.

$24 an hour is not over paid. I’m sorry. But most people can be a teacher. There is a difference between a teacher and a good teacher. But pretty much any one can be/become a teacher. Wages are on skill. And there’s not that much skill to just being a teacher.

No one held a gun to their head, forcing them to be teachers.
We all make choices, some of us are just mature enough to deal with them.

Imagine going to college for 4+ years, getting a job paying apparently $20k/yr, and then having the audacity to blame your decision making skills on everyone else.

It’s the most common job in America. Do you not understand supply and demand?

$40k a year starting, to work 9 months. The equivalent of starting at 53k for most full time salaries positions.
No one is arguing that dealing with shite head kids and parents isn’t hard or that it doesn’t suck. But
A job being tough or hard isn’t enough to warrant higher wages. Supply and demand. Is it a skill/profession that few possess the intellectual or physical means to be able to to learn how to do it? It’s not.
Being a garbage man would probably be exhausting and tiring work. Doesn’t mean they should get paid more. Nothing wrong with either of those professions, but I’d say the pay is just right.

Public school teachers can toss my salad. Except I’m not a minor, so they probably won’t.

It’s actually not bait, you bored useless frick.
Go look at the stats, public school teachers do more and deal with more than the $35k average Joe working a bank teller job.

Considering they are employees of the taxpayer they shouldn't ever be making more than the median income of the district they work for.
That goes for all government jobs.

You won’t find many well educated people who make very comfortable wages arguing that teachers are overpaid and whiny.

What teaching job only pays 20k? Maybe some po dunk small town private school. Any decent teaching job is going to start at 42 -45k minimum. With 2 months off in the summer and a pile of breaks during the year. Wife has 20 years in. With her masters, she is right around 60k
