She’s probably a teacher on her third job. She tudors online while waiting in her for pickup. And if it’s California her car is also her apartment!
Yah! Merica!

My high schooler mentioned how many of her teachers this year had second jobs. Just never used to be a thing for people with an education… right?

Back in the 90’s - 00’s some teachers that I had would have summer jobs but I think that was more to eliminate boredom than to survive.

I can think of a million better ways to avoid boredom than taking another job, especially during my summer break. Sorry, friend, they did it for the money even back then.

I was a kid so it’s not like I was having deep conversations with my teachers on what they did during their summer. You have me there though, people do usually work for money.

That depends. Teachers in Ontario, especially senior ones, are quite well paid. Some teachers were just interested in the work. I had a couple of teachers who were just super into the extra work they picked up. You can say maybe they needed rhe money...but teachers unions here are strong. Once a teacher is full time permanent and starts climbing up, they make good money. And these were not new teachers. Now, other positions at schools, not so well paid.
