We referring to teachers as “it” now?
Damn. Underpaid and dehumanized all at once. That’s gotta be rough.
Cut a bit of slack as the world adjusts to not making assumptions. Yeah “they” would have been better.
Trap em with a bunch of nazis, minorities disproportionately penalised for minor infringements, throw in some beatings and torture and you pretty much have the American prison system!
“it’s” own money? I’m assuming you meant “its” but even then your teacher is an object?
Don’t assume someone’s pronouns. “It” is a safe bet these days.
It’s all about the intentions. Not the quantity.
For some reason those school party pizzas tasted so much better than normal
Forbidden fruit.
I learned recently that teachers in my area actually make decent money. Not like… Tech industry money, but for my area they make $30/h on the low end, $43/h median, and $52.60/h on the high end.
That’s a decent living that most people don’t experience. I’m sure some places are awful for teachers though.
Based on the $ ima assume you’re American and probably live in a high cost of living area, they get paid that much to compensate for high prices. They’re probably as poor as the rest of us.
Average wage in my area is around $30/h.
Yeah so they’re poor.
Poor in my mind is not having basic necessities. At $30/h here you could definitely like… own a house, pay all your bills, buy groceries, pay for a vehicle, and still have like… $500+ left in your budget on a single income.
In my experience average pay is just above the peverty line in a given area. Most teachers make shit, especially for what they’re doing. And if the starting pay in your area is $30 the CoL is probably very high.
Like yeah, they’re not homeless, but most people are barely getting by on the average wage in the area.
Future teacher here, my salary starts at 52$ CAD/hour, which is great! But I’m only paid for the time I’m in class, which is roughly 3h45 per day…
This pay doesn’t include the time to prepare the class, the time to correct, the time to attend mandatory meetings on the lunch break. Finally, we don’t have our vacation payed, so they split our pay to give us a salary during the summer (okay this last point is fair, but it illustrates that hourly salary in education is not representative).
i have never seen a meme this sad before
Was this not the top post of all time from reddit? Huh.
It’s not much.
But it’s dishonest work.
