I have been shouting from the rooftops for educators who argue. 13 weeks vacation doesn't exist anywhere except education. And yes, teachers are paid during that time off but they are paid well with NO responsibilities during those off times. Find me a gig that pays 65k with 13 weeks vacation......

My spouse has been in the real world all their career. Yes, they make 6 figures and get a whopping 4 weeks vacation after 25 years of experience. Well, as a HS director I made 80k with 13 weeks off! I spent my summers with my child while my spouse trudged off to the office.

You are DEAD on.
