All these posts are correct. Teaching is a great job, with, in many cases, excellent benefits and pay, and generous time off. But don't ***** about it. Instead, go do it. There's a shortage in many areas.

Honestly, griping about teacher pay and all that is mostly sour grapes, and sour grapes make a poor whine
I'm not griping, really...I'm just tired of paying master craftsman wages (through my taxes) for apprentice level job performance. Sour grapes? Nope. I have "enough" to live on...The problem is that most bureaucrats, teachers included, "enough" is never enough. What do the members of the teacher's union expect? A BMW in every garage, and a weekend beach cabin as well?

Sure seems to be that way in Oregon. Yet still, a teacher with a $69K paycheck per year feels the need to "allegedly" steal?????
