This is in fact quite true. Teachers are clueless about the real world. They themselves live in a fake world of summer vacations, winter breaks, spring breaks, vitae and tenure. They have no idea how to prepare children for the real world since they themselves have never lived in that world. So what's their advice...keep going to school. And those that can't do, teach, usually at the taxpayer's expense.
No, we keep going to school because that's whats required of us to keep our credentials cleared.
And yes, many of us do live in the real world.
