Thank you - someone with real numbers. I have done similar
investigating
here and the differential for salaries here on Long Island NY is also
not
as
bad as teachers complain. While taxpayers are facing layoffs and no
raises,
the school districts around here are still doing the usual raises.

New York isn't NC, or many of the other states.

New York isn't a grapefruit either. What the hell has that got to do with
anything?


What is the rank of NY, in relation to the whole country, Richard?

Rank in what?


I'm not going to bother to look it up, since it will not change your mind.
I've made my invitation, to you, and any others. Come to NC and teach math
or science. You said you were changing careers. Put your money where your
mouth is. Until then shut up. Back up those claims. Good luck with you
being one of the 60k earners! It shouldn't be any risk, if you are so
sure
of your claims.

I can care less about the salary, I am going in it for the benefits and the
vacation. I don;t need the money.



Figures lie, and liars figure. Come live the life.

Oh, by the way, how many of those 50 - 60k teachers had doctorates? What
would a doctorate of psychology make in the same area? It is about the
same
level of education.

Doctors of psych? I doubt they make much. Not worth the degree, that is
for sure.


I'm done defending teachers. We don't deserve the bashing, and surely
don't
need it..

I am not bashing teachers - there is nothing to defend. I am going to be
one. What I am trying to point out is that teachers are paid fairly.
