Their lack of compensation seems to be common knowledge for everyone. I can recall talking with friends that went into teaching and they were well aware of what they were getting themselves into. In short, marginal pay but a great lifestyle.
I have a hard time understanding people that pick these careers with full knowledge of the compensation limitations and complain relentlessly once they are established.

This is not the exclusive domain of Teachers.
Get a bunch of lawyers together and count the minutes before one of them brings up their billable hours total.
Get a bunch of engineers in a room and count the minutes until one of them brings up a scheduled timeline at work.
Get a bunch of ditch diggers together and count the minutes until one of them brings up how deep their latest ditch was.
Get a bunch of athletes together and watch them go on strike about their compensation.
Get a bunch of billionaires together count the minutes until one of them brings up the taxes they paid last year.
