Hey TiltonBB please read my post to the Major above. And as far as time to grade papers while at school just let me remind you that elementary school teachers do playground and lunch room duties. Planning time is less than 1/2 hour a day if they are lucky, not much time teaching over 20 children all day long! As far as great pensions, my wife pays in over ten percent of her pay for that pension and after 25 years at age 62 it will be less than $1,500 per month. Get your facts straight.
