Often times, I like to contemplate ways in which I could acquire more money: write my own curriculum, publish a book of graphic organizers for ESL students, sell tuperware or sex toys at people's houses, or maybe start my own personal escort service for rich politicians.
But, alas, all of these things would require the expenditure of more time and energy and work in some fashion. I just want to get paid well for the work that I do. I want to feel that I am fairly compensated for all of my time and effort. Why can't a teacher in this country with a college education and a master's degree make enough money to not be contemplating prostitution by the 14th of the month? I mean, it's no wonder there are so many shitty teachers out there- we are not respected as professionals and are not compensated as such.
And, now, I complete my rant.
