Oh please, we all know what teachers do. It's the only profession I was able to job shadow five days a week, five hours a day for 12 straight years.

Teaching is a joke. These people work 3/4 days, 2/3s of the year yet earn at least 100% of a salary. Not to mention it's got to be one of the only jobs on the planet where you can pretty much map out exactly what you'll make from the age of 21 until the day you die. Yes, teachers always conveniently forget that they will continue to get paid for their easy job for ~30 years after they last teach a class. You know exactly what you're getting into from a salary perspective so STFU once you're in it. I mean you can't honestly think you'll be a millionaire teaching grade 4 for 25 years, nor can you possibly think you'd deserve it.

Schools should all be open year round so we can maximise use of these expensive facilities and for once get our (taxpayers') money's worth out of these over-priced civil servants. Students would be split into two groups, so at any given time one of the two groups would be in class. Teachers start out with two weeks' holidays like the rest of us, and work up to four weeks over a 10-year period.

THAT would be fair.
