There are fair arguments, but this is the biggest bs argument out there. General public knowing nothing.

They are salary based. It's just the way their profession works. It's a perk if you want to see it that way, but in no way are they paid for doing nothing for time off.

An example I made in the past is firefighters. Do they only get paid when there is a fire?

It's a profession that has two months off in the summer. Yeah it's a reason people get on, but their not paid for those two months. It's salary based and paid out over twelve.

Dumbest argument out there. There are some good ones, and Cliff has me thinking, but this is easily the dumbest argument against teachers.(or any profession really)
