  1. you think 1-4 is unique to teaching?
  2. Why? What do you think a teacher should be paid on average?
  3. Good point, fantastic actually. My first thread in here I pointed out that I was teaching when a buddy of mine started making some serious coin. That inspired me to look into a different career because what I was doing was not giving me the life I wanted. Then I get shitted on for telling folks to find another career path that allows you to make more coin. I did the exact same thing personally. So what is the argument for more coin? You want it because it is earned/deserved (debatable) or so you can do cool shit that cost more money that you currently do not have access to. I think the truth comes to light with the bolded part you highlighted.
  4. there are 250-260'ish working days in the private sector if I remember correctly.
  5. Take 9 weeks, plus Christmas, Spring Break, Holidays, etc...It is inherently better than the private sector. I am trying to equate a teachers position in the real world that isnt performance based- HR Generalist comes to mind. College degree- $45-50k for a business the size of a school district. I dont think off the shelf teachers with 5-10 years service equals a $70k salary. I think teachers dont understand the private sector and $70k salary jobs arent being handed out as easily as they may think, and that could be a part of the problem.
  6. true. dozen plus years.
  7. if the avg in Texas is $48.5k, what do you think the avg should be? in the private sector- that number hosts a wide variety of roles. in business, $60k+ starts the be laser focused on results/performance. Not everyone is a $100k earner and if the teacher thinks lesson plans and grading are a time suck, try being a $100k+ sales person and the grind that is year in and year out. yelling at clouds with end number makes zero fucking sense. 5k more a year doesnt move any needles. also, if i had kids i wouldnt be relying on state funded institutions to be teaching my kids. they would go private where the dollars and cents make sense- but that is a different conversation.
  8. for the most part voters vote on bond offerings, some pass and some dont. i would personally argue that teachers are slotted correctly with their pay for the most part. Until performance/accountability are brought into their world then I cant justify more money being thrown at them. I also have zero kids. Regarding performance/accountability- that is almost impossible to measure, unfortunately. Take 100 teachers from a high school I would bet 30% would fail in the private sector (be fired or riff'd), while those same 30% would carry a long tenured career in education and even become principals, etc... Where does this stop...It could be argued that social workers deserve the same if not more than teachers, but are yet very underpaid. Also, social workers know, just like teachers what they are getting into regarding the pay. Dont like the way the business pays, move to a different business. Lastly, there are ways for teachers to improve their income- stipend for bus duty, lunch duty, d-hall, test administration, etc...I dont know how many of my ex-colleagues would bitch about their pay but never showed up to make additional coin.
  9. I am not smart enough to have any of the answers nor do I think there is one specific answer. Garbage is your word, important is my word regarding family dynamic.
  10. but black...Some seem to think the color of your skin limits your opportunities today in this country. I would also lament that it solidifies how important the family dynamic is. So...if there are a lot of moving parts you can zero in on family dynamic for cause/effect. Sorry the dumbfuckery is lost on you and doesnt help certain narratives.
  11. ex teacher/coach here... i got out of teaching when a buddy of mine who i didn’t think had much snap started to bring home some serious coin... i asked what he was doing and he said, i am in sales...i wanted that. So i started applying for sales jobs. Dozen years later i have never looked back. So teachers... want more money, go get a job that pays what you think you are worth. Go get paid on actual performance. You knew what the job paid when you were doing your student teaching. Based on what i do now and what i was bringing home as a teacher/coach- i don’t think more money solves the issue and in the private world they are probably slotted in the correct salary/earning potential.
  12. jfc...i have never heard of a drug dealer slinging drugs...i know of drug dealers slangin dope. #nocred
