The teacher funded classroom one is so true. We have the board, desks and projector. My school let me use the poster printer to make a few things but otherwise I was on my own for everything. A lot of days I can feel that raptor one too. I’m usually happy to see my students and their parents at the store, if only because they’re always so excited and shocked to see me.
But there are a hell of a lot more people that can teach well than there are people who can toss around a pointed leather ball at that level. Supply and demand are real things and can’t be discounted.
As a former student, I got all of them. I feel their pain. Maybe because I was a good kid.

Thanks for being a teacher! The future America (or wherever you live) thanks you!
Seconded!
thank you for doing one of the most important jobs in the human race.
You guys deserve higher pay.
You make millions for tossing around a pointed leather ball, teach little kids and you really don’t get paid at all.
I don’t disagree that they deserve higher pay.

Teachers really are pathetic!
Ah Piers, I bet you’re the joy and delight of every adult in your life.
