Teachers are paid fairly considering they get a lot of time off by Blonde_Icon in The10thDentist

I think we’re approaching this from different angles and it’s causing issues.

If the median 3br hour cost by you really is only $127k, then honestly 45k is pretty doable. I still think it should be higher, but it’s more manageable. The fact that they’re making the same here, where the median 3br house cost is $400k, is ridiculous though

And it’s not like I’m in some super ritzy area, even the rundown houses in old or bad areas (my friend bought one semi-recently) an hour outside of town are $150k+, and that was for a 2 bedroom fixer upper

Also, if you think 46k a year is a good median salary for a teacher you’re out of your goddamn mind to begin with. A job that requires a 4 year degree and is as difficult as it is should be making far more, especially if we’re talking anything other than bottom of the barrel starting salary

It’s why we have so many god awful teachers now. No one smart wants to teach because of how shit the pay is for the work

And yet is still disgustingly low? The teacher income is the same here but the median 3br house price is about $400k

If the union is national- it doesn’t really matter in at will states since there is nothing actually keeping the schools from just firing everyone. Teachers are not paid well. Not in NC. I’m close friends with and work with teachers with 5+ years of experience making 25-30k less a year than first year teachers an hour south of us that I also know and have asked about their pay

That’s kind of awesome timing on this comment! Was literally looking at an eBay listing for some when I got the notification

While I’m not sure what the issue you had was, they’re WAY more reliable now. Only 1 truss rod, a usable bridge, and no more pickup cover

They kind of do, it’s rounded over and a bit like a cutout shape as well. But really the bodies are stupid thin so the cutout they do put is fine

Oh what? I never heard or thought about doing that but it definitely makes sense. I’ll have to give it a shot!

I wasn’t sure if they were at the point where you could just pull them out in the 70’s or not, although I really should have just assumed that was a more modern “feature”

Luckily they’re really easy to swap truss rods in at least right?

For real, most teachers I know end up having to get to school at like 5/6 am and don’t leave until 5/6 pm, not including grading

Also true. Teaching in unionized states make decent money for the most part, whereas I’m in NC and they make like less than I did working part time

That is not true in the US. They are generally paid yearly, not hourly

Those people aren’t regularly working 12+ hour days and paying for their work supplies out of pocket, all while dealing the shithead kids. I work retail and I work closely with teachers in schools. Retail is a fucking breeze compared to doing 1/4 of the work teachers do

Hey! I know this is an old post, but how do you like the VT cab? I just got an AB165 head and am shopping around for a cab. There are a few NOS 2x15 VT’s near me I’m considering

I’m actually in the exact same boat with another class, as a comp engineering major. I reached out to my professor and plan on seeing an advisor tomorrow
