Like I said previously, Teachers salaries in SF aren't even at question in the cited article. A custodian employed by sf makes an average of 92k [1] vs an average teacher in SF makes 75.6k [2].
But I can still simultaneously believe teachers are underpaid and at the same think they aren't entitled to multi-million dollar homes.

- nikanj 5y agoDoes the question substantially change if you replace teacher with custodian? Should custodians be able to afford the community they work in?
- rkk3 5y agoIf you'll pay me 150k to be a custodian again or however much to afford to purchase a million dollar home I'll take it in a heart beat. You probably haven't but I've actually been a custodian, and besides the pay I found it much a more enjoyable experience than working in tech.
