How can they criticize others for "not understanding what they deal with" when likewise they don't empathize for other careers? And in the end, it's kind of a weird discussion altogether. Different jobs are different. News at 11. If it's so ####ing good, go be a teacher. If it's so ####ing bad, quit and join the private sector. But let me tell you... you'll miss those 11 weeks off. I guarantee it.
Does this opinion about them playing the victim card come from actually talking to teachers though?

I find frustration in the opposite direction. We get a thread full of non-teachers arguing back and forth and some people leave the conversation saying teachers are whiners. There are only a couple teachers that have chimed into the conversation here and none were complaining as far as I saw.
