Why you should;
-summer/holidays/spring break off
-impact kids and be one of the cool teachers in high school
-coach a sport
-education is SO important (i.e., meaningful job)
-7:00ish-3:30ish work day
-time to do other things and be with family due to days off/work day hours
-have a real life outside of work
-good health/retirement benefits
-???
Why you shouldn't:
-low pay
-dealing with obnoxious kids
-other things that are bad with jobs (bosses, work to take home, meetings)
-???
So, if you don't particularly value money above all things and you can find a job in a middle/upper class neighborhood school, it looks like teaching is a pretty awesome job.
