Talk about a joke... I make less than that($38,000) a year at my job and I have a business degree. If I'm making less than the NEA's "typical" teacher and I'm in it basically for the money (there's no way in hell people want to do spreadsheets every day for the pure joy of it), then the typical teacher, who should be in their profession because they love it, should be willing to start for much less than that.

Time to look for a new job.
