In Texas the average teacher salary is well over 40K per year BUT as a teacher they only have to work about 9 months to earn that salary. They also get retirement benefits far in excess of nearly anything in the private sector. Most in the private sector can't imagine having a "pension" of any kind.
I sick of hearing this poor teacher crap. try getting a job in the real world where they tax your income away to pay for people who complain about having to work 9 months out of the year.
