Well I don't want to derail this thread, but give me a break. I don't see teachers doing ANY work all summer long, or over Christmas, or over Easter. It's a well-paid gravy job that requires no more overtime during the 2/3 of the year they actually work than any other job. In fact, I believe it requires less work. Ever seen the staff parking lot at a school at 4:30? All the cars are long gone. Marking at home you might say? Well most professional jobs keep going long after the day is done as well. That's life, teachers.

Plus the pension is incredible. Teachers have nothing to complain about. Being a teacher in Alberta is probably one of the best jobs in the history of mankind yet they complain all the time about it.
