Funny, because I’ve never bitched and complained about my salary. It’s not awesome or extravagant, but it’s livable, which I am highly thankful for.
Also, summers off? I work summer school and coach almost everyday in the summer. When I’m not doing that, I’m planning curriculum for next year. I always get a kick out of people when they say that.
Maybe some teachers take from June 22nd-Early September completely off, but it’s no one I know/am friends with.
