Default Teaching is a great part time job!

Teachers work about 65% of the hours put in by the average full time professional. That percentage should be used when calculating what a teacher really makes compared to the people who work full time. Great benefits, good pensions, and job security that most people would love to have. Most teachers schedules include plenty of down time to grade papers and prepare lessons.

Just curious: How come gym teachers and shop teachers who spend no time grading etc. get the same rate as teachers who claim to spend so much time outside the classroom still working?
