I can’t wait for this economic downturn to end so people will stop envying math teachers. I couldn’t imagine trying to live in the OC on 70k. With a degree, he probably regrets his career choice as far as pay goes for 8 out of every 10 years, it just looks good right now but over the long haul, the pay will always be it’s major detractor as a career choice.
Who cares what anyone gets paid, their work hours and their job compared to yours. Make a list of the ten jobs you think are easy and overcompensated, then go be one of those.
If being a math teacher was such a great gig, then why aren’t people lining up to be one, except for during economic meltdowns, they are begging for teachers.
