First of all Janice, you are NOT worth 117,000 a year! I don't care HOW LONG you've been teaching. How do you even begin to justify that much???? The poor tax payers in your school district are being raped financially just so you can live your life of Riley. That's almost 10,000.00 a month! And the poor machine operator who struggles to put food on the table and send his kids to school pays whopping taxes so "Janice" can her outrageous pay. And for what? Basically glorified babysitting. It makes me sick! I don't want any part of your profession.

And by the way....you DO get paid for summers, holidays, etc. You divide by 52 weeks and get paychecks over the summer. If you say, "No, I divide by 40 because that's how many school days there are..." then you are an idiot and shouldn't be teaching. DUH!

lostsubteacher Well,

Substitute teaching is a very difficult job, although regular teachers do seem to see you as a "babysitter" type, at least from my experience, and they don't really seem to expect much out of you, even though you likely do have a degree in Education and are willing to learn. Most places, like my district, even use an automated syste...See More
