If you are thinking “yeah, but they have summers off” I want to punch you in the mouth. I couldnt agree more. Ive heard that argument a dozen times in the last few weeks... And I just remind the presenters of that argument that most of the time teachers spend July and August (minus the first week of July and the last week of August, mind you) either working to make ends meet, or going to school themselves... I ran into my Junior Secondary French teacher in a cafeteria in Victoria, a few years after I started work with the Ministry of Finance. I asked him what he was doing and he explained that he spent his summers in school at UVic continuing to upgrade. I said, So, you dont get a vacation? and he just laughed at me.
