So you mean the same thing every other salaried person in any career field does.. except they do actually full time.

Even this doesn’t really get the heart of the issue. People that work in an office do not have to be constantly attentive in the same way that teachers are nurses have to

To be more specific, we are PAID for 180 days. The rest of the time isn’t vacation, it’s unpaid time off

Many times we’re working overtime all the time . Many of us go in on Saturdays , go to PDs , or volunteer after school events.

Alclark76 :
If you calculate the number of hours worked in those 180 days, it's more than what someone works at a regular 9-5 job.

In my district, we work 200 days a year. Plus all of the unpaid things we do. It’s insane.

We have openings! You too can “work” only 187 days a year!! But be warned, it is NOT an 8-3 five day a week gig. It’s A LOT of extra after hours work!!!

🎀 Aras 🎀 :
Then they’ll argue “other salary jobs work outside of their normal hours!”

Prine :
That’s why we should stop doing all that extra work.

Being a teacher isn’t just student facing time. The prep time to entertain and educate 120 students a day doesn’t occur during that student facing time. It occurs after or before or at night. So a teacher workday isn’t just 8-3.

I only get paid for working 187 days. It’s not like we are getting paid for the days we don’t work.
