This reminds me of the fictional character of Walter White in Breaking Bad. Best advice I can offer in such cases - leave the country. Try your luck elsewhere.

Best advice I can offer in such cases - leave the country. Try your luck elsewhere. Teach internationally. Get paid premium.
- swingline-747 8y agoLeaving permanently doesn't solve the underpayment problem. Striking and collective bargaining often does. It sucks but it's vital.
- dschuetz 8y agoAs a teacher? In the US? Good luck with that. At least it might solve the personal problem of working off your behind just so you get something to eat. The profession of a teacher/mentor was once one of the most respected professions that had ever existed. Now look at what is happening to education in the US. Teachers are underpaid, curricula cut and trimmed to the minimum, tuitions in private schools worth a fortune. Public schooling is in danger. How to survive that as a public school teacher? Go on strike? LOL
- darkerside 8y agoCan you be a little more specific? Before suggesting someone else uproot their life and family to find a better life elsewhere, where exactly do you suggest they go, and how will it help them? It's vastly understating it to say this is easier said than done. For the record, I think that thought experiment could illustrate that teachers in America don't have it so bad.
