My wife is a teacher and I am an accountant. I make about 4 times what she makes and she says for the money she would never do my job. While both have the same education and within a few years of the same amount of time in the profession in her opinion there is no comparison in the time and effort spent at work.
While she has 3 months off in the summer I am working. While she has every holiday known to man off, I am working. When school ends at 3:15, she knows she is leaving to go home at 4:00, while I may be at work until 6:00 or 10:00 or when ever my work is done. If she has to work a Saturday its on the school calendar at the beginning of the year, if I have to wrk an entire weekend I might find out as late Saturday morning.
If I screw up and make a mistake my job can be given to someone else, she knows short of getting caught having relations with a student on her desk she has nothing to worry about. If the economy goes down the tubes I'm looking at pay cuts (been there) and addition duties - if the economy goes down the tubes the school district raises taxes.
