- thriftwy 3y agoThe idea of teachers working "after school" is awful (see Breaking Bad), but relying in part on your spouse's income is expected.
- red_trumpet 3y agoWhy do teachers only work 190 days in Australia? Here in Germany it definitely is a full time job if you include preparation of class and corrections.
