I also get tired of them saying they are underpaid. Lots of people with a college degree make less.

Was talking about this with our CPA when we were getting our taxes done, and he said those on a pension make $60-$70K a year! And generally retire in their 50's and then get a different job, so they are making 2 incomes.
Oh yes I agree. It may be true in places where the cost of living is high, but the teachers I know all live in very nice houses, drive newer cars, go on vacation two or three times a year, and go out to eat regularly. Plus they always say they work during the summer but that is mostly just a day or two here and there and I never see anyone post about working during breaks, they are always out having fun. They also get lots of extra discounts in many places. I don’t think their jobs are always easy, especially with kids’ and parents’ attitudes nowadays, but I am really over the whining.

But woe to anyone who posts remarks like ours on social media. They attack like a horde of locusts. Another reason I tend not to be very sympathetic.
