Only two types of people will still be a teacher with current pay expectations:
- those with a genuine passion for education, and get joy out of helping kids
- those with some other ulterior motive for having authority over children.
The amount of absurd power-tripping I suffered under in school makes me think there’s way too much of the second group. We’re definitely getting what we pay for here.
Top tier comment, artfully put.
