I think teachers are overpaid and the education the kids get is not worth the money people spend in tax and property tax.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8555618


At least teachers are going to work everyday and not sitting home and drawing welfare and food stamps!

Besides, how can you say that a person who has to get a masters degree just to land a job is overpaid when the average is about $40,000 a year. That is nothing compared to other jobs that require a masters and skill.

Teachers are getting such a bad rap when most are good, educated people trying to be a part of the solution.

The problem is not the teachers; it is things like common core and government regulation. It is also the "everybody gets a trophy" mentality and too many cell phones in class that teachers cannot get rid of.

Every try to teach 30 kids on cell phones and have no power to make them put the phone up because parents "want to be able to get ahold of their kid in case of emergency?"

You got a lot to learn about the way it really works.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12851403


Most teachers I know work way over their required hours too.

My opinon:

Teachers are the fabric that helps hold things together. We are with the kids more than the parents and as a result have to do the job of "institutionalizing" them.

Most teachers realize this and this is the reason they choose the profession, and take the abuse they do from admin, gov, kids and trolls like those here. We teach the kids right from wrong every day. We are willing to let the kids hate us if they just learn this. Civil service drives most of us, and the ones who are here for job security and a regular paycheck still have to do their jobs, there's no way around that.

2012-2013 Average Starting Teacher Salaries by State

[link to www.nea.org]


We are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo messed up
 Quoting: Goofy for God


But I'm always listening to teachers whine about how they are so underpaid? HAHA
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70162470


Did you actually click on the link and look at the salaries? They are underpaid!
It takes a Master's degree and testing out the yang yang to get the job and though they get summer's off, there are educational programs they usually have to attend and training to get.

If you think about it, a babysitter who watches 5 or 6 kids a day, makes more money than the teacher. And the home babysitter does not have a college debt, nor are they responsible for teaching.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12851403


Oh look, a teacher who wants "Mo' money". That list is old too. The average salary in NC for teachers is much higher now. If you want "mo' money", supplement your income with a summer job. Every single teacher I know in NC, three in total, makes at least 45k. The highest being my friend's dad who was a PE teacher for several years and retired at around the 70k salary mark, with state benefits for life. That is excellent pay for NC. You will live very comfortably with that salary here. They also aren't busy at all during the summer in regards to attending "teaching programs". All three of them spend their summer going to the beach, fishing, and playing golf.

Teachers aren't the only ones with student loan debt, so don't play that card.

I like homeschooling as an alternative actually, but please make sure you socialize your children with other kids their age.

I think a huge part of school is social training, which the kids will do in large part on their own on the playground, lunchroom, gym, etc. Learning to solve your own problems socially is very valuable. We have to let our kids fight their own battles and learn how to make healthy friendships if they are going to succeed as adults one day.

I can charge about 4000$ for large trash clean up for small land lots less than 1 acre.

For everything over 1 acre I charge 1500$ for each additional half acre.

I clear several lots a month. Trash is very expensive.

Besides trash workers unions have unbelievable power, can you image what your town would look like in 3 days of trash worker strikes?

Yeah....exactly

my garbage men are nice and seem intelligent.. over a year ago one of them got my can of branches out of my yard.. I was on the way to store...(I walk and use bus) and had forgotten.

since then these fellows get goodies out of me periodically.. my brownies are a favorite complete with a nice thankyou for your service not.

I know somebody in Italy and there was a period of time in naples where the dumps were filled and it took time to find a new place and the streets were a stinking smelly mess.

Garbage workers are to be prized. I don't call my garbage men in my notes.. its something like.. to you ones who take my trash.. thankyou and enjoy the treat. We need to remember these invisible people who do so much for the maintenance of society. I always have thanked mind if I am outside when they come by etc but they really are pleased with a home cooked goody now and then. Another person here leaves a favorite beverage out for them. Since I started with the goodies one will take time to bring my trash can back up on my porch which is nice but not something I need done. Be thankyou for all SERVICE.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72227407


Agreed. My trash service men are polite and hard working.
They bring the trash cans all the way back up my driveway, even though they don't have to. A couple of times they have knocked at my door and asked me if I had any trash because I had forgot to put it outside my gates.

I remember them at Christmas with gift cards.

one day the world will give up money. its all make believe even if backed by precious metals or crops or hot air.

It is not needed. It serves on the lower planets to get people to grow up and work but we should move past that now.

Just think of what we cannot afford because we don't have enough paper money and digital credits

And don't a one of you in this thread give me that SHIT about without money you need to take 3 chickens to walmarts to by something.

Work simply becomes volunteer work and every one has appropriate housing and all that.

You still work but it will be less hours and as we move more into technologies than we have people will have time to develop the minds and play and travel. What we waste on WAR right now is huge. We seem to have enough digital credits to wage war but not enough of them to fix the infrastructure. This is insane.

you cannot be morally taxed for money earned by your own labor. Your labor is part of you and cannot be taxed. But not enough of you know that to raise some holy hell.

this country was created so the treasury could coin money. This means NO PERSONAL TAXES people. Money is created to pay people for government jobs and for infrastructure etc and then the receiver and businesses of that money have money to spend.

Sales taxes on a money world are acceptable. You would pay a one time sales tax on the house you buy for example. and ditto over other personal purchases. Businesses can be taxed on income. And so can foreigner having business in this country... and on goods shipped into this country.

But YOU THE SON OF GOD CANNOT BE TAXED ON YOUR LABOR. Ponder that one.. the issue being you are to dumb to understand what a SON OF GOD IS.. but its every moral human being. SO BE IT.

If money were gone there would be no insurance programs.. no taxes... no banks... etc etc associated with the money industry. This would release some people to find new careers. You will have people who are engaged in global trading and shipping of goods.

Instead of a real estate agency getting 7% on a house.. I guess its still 7%.. I don't know anymore...there would be helping to find houses for those moving or having babies etc and to help those leaving houses too small etc to find other ones who need a house. There is no direct trading in any of this.

Some folks will still farm for example and others get food delivered to stores. Every one just goes to the market and gets what they need. Ditto furniture.. cars etc.

without money being in the way.. you won't have cheap good produced and things will be made RIGHT . and so on and so forth.

There will still be ads for different workers and professions .. there will still be schools and college.. and so on and so forth. People outgrowing a job can move to another field based on availabity. Stress will go way down and so will crime. you will live longer for that alone.. stress relief.

Sounds like your sister should get more involved in the school. The school board depends on parents giving up control in order to enact things like no recess and no talking at lunch. Part of the problem with education is parents not being as involved, or less parents being involved. I feel this is a result of the two income family, and with less sahm's, less parental say-so at school, both administratively and from a student discipline standpoint.

They prob took talking and recess away at school as a control measure because the kids were going wild. I've seen it done at other schools for the same reason.

Salaries

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment Statistics Survey, as of May 2008, the average annual wage for police and sheriff’s patrol officers was $52,810 versus $42,270 for all occupations combined. The chart below shows how police salaries compare against other service industry and criminal justice-related fields.

Now maybe this is just Ohio and Indiana but NOPE. I've known these people for over 30 yrs and also know people in the criminal justice field who are also family such as court floats and juvenile probation officers , ICE agents , and on up. Now the " on ups" that live out west and in the Pacific North West DO MAKE GREAT MONEY, but the other ones, no, no, and no.
My daughter's best friend since grade school is a teacher and has been a teacher since she graduated high school and she doesn't make this kind of money, Not in Ohio anyway. She comes to every one of our family get togethers, she's that much like family to us.

The 3 guys I know that work for Rumpke are lucky if they make HALF what they are reporting here.

Re: The $100,000 job: Garbage workers!!!Teachers , Fireman and Police Officers make what???
Im an electrician i pull in about $61,000 a yr and i think thats fair....and live in my dream town cant hate
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70965828


And your point is very true. In the white collar world you often move all over the place. That has to suck. Location is important to me also. making X amount of money ain't the same if you live in a high priced urban, suburban area.

Also, I don't see anything near the vitriol leveled at all the wall street thievery running our ass into the ground, or, their political cronies.

Here's a theme consistent video.

My wife who teaches middle school gets almost $60,000 year in Oregon.

I see how much she does at home and all the times she goes back to the school to do something else.

LOL what kids are in class 8 hours a day?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 53337336


Kids who go to school from 8 to 4 everyday? Its called school...kids go there to learn while the parents work? Ever heard of it?
 Quoting: wharrgarbl



Teach i hate to tell you this but you do work part time. The majority of people work 2080 hours a year. You work 1680. So hate to tell you this but you are 400 hours light of full time. Not to mention, we pay teachers to teach our kids, if thats the case why do my kids bring home 2 hours of homework a night that i have to reteach them? Just saying.
 Quoting: Viperart


Agreed...if you take it yearly, I work less, but I also get paid less.

If i worked 2080 hours per year with a degree and 7+ years on the job with the same company in the private sector as many of my friends do, I'd make much more money. I have many friends who make closer to 100K with a similar degree and work history. Difference is my time off...and they work like 60-70 hours a week for their salary. I have laws in place to protect my work day.

...on the homework front, I agree with you. I do not give homework, and I hate all the testing they do for these kids. If we can't do it in class, it is too much imo. Teachers are not the enemy, the Admin. and the gov. are. Teachers are actually on the parents side more often than not...
 Quoting: wharrgarbl


You are sooo awesome! I wish you taught locally! If half the teachers out there had your attitude towards kids and homework testing etc i think we would be a lot further along.

Molina dropped out of high school in the 10th grade and he's worked at Crown for 10 years. He says his starting salary was about $80,000. Sankar too dropped out of school before migrating to the U.S. from Guyana 20 years ago.

Not everyone makes six figures, but most trash workers are doing better than high school dropouts and even graduates.

The Globalists not satisfied with pitting private sectors workers against slave labor overseas now want to go after the only place left where Organized Labor has a sanctuary.

If it is wrong for Labor to Organize for Bargaining power then it is also wrong for Business to have Organizing power via Trade Pacts and other special interests lobby groups.

Labor organizing for bargaining power is not only allowed but required under Free Market Capitalism because you can sure bet the other side of the spectrum does it as well.

Would you rather be a fireman or a garbage man....if they both paid the same????

:pbdrink:
 Quoting: The Old Timer


garbage man is easier on the psyche and you leave the garbage behind at the end of the day.

Fireman - especially in urban areas witness unimaginable horrors on the job. I've heard some stories that would scar you for life just listening to them. Tragically, alcohol becomes their only escape on their days off.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 39903149


One of my dads best friends used to be a firefighter and after an incident where he tried to save a little girl from burning to death in an apartment fire. He got her out but she didn't make it and he was scarred for life. He quit and became an electrician, but he tells of some pretty gruesome stories, mostly from car wrecks

Communists always support the oppressed of the target nation. Yes, it was part of the construct, but NOBODY ELSE gave a flying fuck about the plight of the worker or any member of the underclass. The good thing is that Americans are not communists at heart, so the plan didn't work out in the USA. Workers do need representation or they will become serfs, the Communists played their hand and it didn't work out as they planned.
