If you could read I think you would see that the comment was about the number of hours worked, not wages, or benefits.
Teachers do put in very long hours on many days. Much of their work is done at home preparing for the next day's lessons and grading papers.
It seems to be an article of faith on FR that teachers are all lazy bums. Such a belief is as valid as saying that all who post on FR know what they are talking about.

Teachers do put in very long hours on many days my wife is full time and works 27 hours per week, she has 1/2day off twice a week, tons more weeks off than anyone I know and two months vacation in the summer. She leaves 30 minutes after me and is home 1 hour before (expect the days she has 1/2 a day off)
