The more I read teacher's quotes in newspapers, the more I wish they'd all lose their jobs.

Maybe the teacher should get a job in the Oil Patch.

Ever wonder why teachers resist automation and computerization so much? 90% of them could replaced by computers that would do a much better job of teaching the kids. You’d only need to retain 10% of them for interactions that don’t require computers.

The guy has zero college and walks out of high school and is making 90-grand,"

Good for him...

Anyone that can cope with frostbite in winter and mosquitoes big as birds in the summer deserves 90 grand.

"To me, that seems to be an injustice."

Real justice would be if this teacher had to work in the oil field for a while and then see if he complains about the money they make. My bet is he'd gladly take a cut in pay to get back to his sweet hours and air conditioning.

The free market is obviously functioning correctly, since a Master’s Degree in education is academically equal to a 1950s 8th grade education.

If that teacher wants the bucks, let him get out in that oil field.

As far as I am concerned, the entire field of “education” should be flushed down the toilet to join Obama and his minions.

Hey teach! How many teachers get killed in work related accidents each year?

I have fourteen years of college. My nephew has none and is 22. He makes twice the income I do as a welder on the oil rig sites.

Well let that little spindle-shanked winesop strap on a set of steel toes, a tin hat and go get himself some of that 90 grand. If he can follow directions he might even keep all of his fingers while he’s breaking out (learning the trade).

said a Williston, N.D., teacher with a master's degree

That's envy and ignorance talk, right there.

Spend a few months as a roustabout, chump, and we'll see what you have to say then, if you survive.

“To me, that seems to be an injustice.”

Me too! The guy should be making more considering the difficulty of the work.

This teacher should have some whine with that government cheese he or she is eating.
