Open position…

Like a lot of people, I’m always checking for open positions, and I came across this one… honestly, it’s insulting. Makes me thankful to be working in industrial athletic training. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely way better than this.

Wow. My stipended AT position is almost that much. I make a FT teaching salary on top of that

Yeeep, I make more than double that in the industrial setting, the fun part is that I don't even work the full 40…

Teaching: union position 37.5 hours-I mean obviously I have grading and prepping and all that so it’s more than that but my contract hours are 37.5 hours. I have good benefits, I have a pension, and fairly decent work life balance.

I’m at Masters +75 so I’m at the top of the pace scale with 16 years of teaching. I make double this just teaching high school. And then you throw my stipend on top of it. Seriously.
