Another thing to keep in mind about these jobs is that not only is the
summer vacation long, but there are plenty of days without kids in the
building, when most teachers go skiing or golfing, or hot-tubbing, and the
workday for most of them is less than 6 hours.
Another thing about those jobs are the hours spent at home designing lesson
plans, quizes, exams, and grading same. The ratio I was told and found to be
true was about 3:1; 3 hours outside the classroom per 1 hour classroom time.
Also as in ANY profession, there are those who work for a paycheck and those
who work to accomplish something.
