The effort your wife is putting into her career sounds much harder than my typical day.

Part of the reason I ultimately decided that I couldn't be a teacher is that I couldn't work in a non-merit based profession. Watching people eff the dog all day, making more than me because they happen to have more experience would be infuriating and ultimately demoralizing. That's gotta be the hardest part of being a good teacher. Watching idiots get "promoted".
