Out of complete nosinesses, how much do teachers get paid?

[tikkakormaandsomerice]

So primary teachers
Secondary school teachers

What would they roughly get paid?

That's the point. No one knows and honestly what does it matter?

And the hardest job will be different for different people!

I think being a social worker would be the hardest job for me because of the emotional impact I feel regarding serious safeguarding incidents at school. I couldn't cope with that 24/7.

I was a carer for a few years and didn't find it particularly hard or tiring. I needed a job with more challenge. My MIL really finds being a carer tough due to her age.

A colleague was a reporter for a big newspaper before teaching. He finds teaching more challenging and much more stressful but he has also told stories of his ex colleagues burning out in journalism so is clearly a hard job for them.

I know loads of people that wouldn't stand a chance in a manual job like bricklaying or plumbing.

Different strokes for different folks!

@Sherrystrull

Because no one, not even teachers, thinks it is

It might be, but if even teachers don't think it is then its unlikely

That's not even slightly what anyone has said. You're manipulating people's posts on purpose.

@Itstarts

Nah.

I just cba with the no one ever says that!!

When we all know fine well that's what you mean

Anyway it just goes in circles as I said.

Well yes, clearly you 'cba' with reading. You've proven that repeatedly.

It's not what people mean.

It only goes in circles because you keep insisting it's what people mean.

It's unsurprising you think it's going round in circles if you don't bother trying to comprehend replies and keep trotting out the same few phrases.

If its not what people mean why the annoyance and well it could be when I say it's not?

No ones saying its not. But no ones saying its not not either

😂

It's OK if you think teaching is harder than most other jobs you know

I certainly think mine is

Including teaching

😉

@Itstarts

It's not just me.

As sherry said it happens enough to make her think she's banging her head off a wall.

Teachers say something that either expressly states or implies that teachers are worse off than other job roles

Others say, eh no, mine is as bad or worse

Teachers say but no one said teaching was unique

Blah blah

On a thread about teaching, teachers challenge misconceptions about teaching. That does not in any way imply teachers think they are worst off.

If a teacher went on a nursing/carer/binman thread to say 'at least you're not a teacher!' you would have a point. But that is not the case.

@Botw1

Why are you so determined to state how easy teaching is? You say you've done teaching but not in a classroom? I'm perplexed by where you're coming from.

⭕️

@Sherrystrull

I'm not

I'm sure its very difficult and challenging. With long hours term time.

So what is your angle?

You’ve previously said you’re a band 5 nurse, then stated you weren’t a nurse. Now you “teach” but not in a classroom. Sweet Lord 😂.

@Easterfunbun

If you can quote where I said I was a band 5 nurse or that I wasn't a nurse?

Amd surely as someone with such a vast knowledge of nursing you're aware that all nurses teach students?

@Sherrystrull

I dont have one

Your disdain for teachers come across strongly. I don't feel that way about nurses. There must be something at play.

@Sherrystrull

Thats nice

@Botw1

I am on my phone. Quite frankly, I can’t be arsed to even scroll back. I mean I’m certainly intrigued at what it is that you do considering you’re an expert on both nursing and teaching except you are neither and never have been. I mean talk about arrogance.

No actually, not all nurses teach other nurses. It goes without saying you lead by example, and you help and guide your fellow nurses, but no you don’t teach them unless you are appropriately trained to do so and getting paid for that responsibility. You have no idea do you?

It's not nice. It's normal.

Being so bitter about other jobs that you have no knowledge about is just odd.

@Easterfunbun

Holy shit

🤣🤣

@Sherrystrull

I'm not bitter and I don't have disdain for teachers exceot maybe for how they come across on threads like these but I'll hold my hands up to a fair bit of provocation
