We referring to teachers as "it" now?
Damn. Underpaid and dehumanized all at once. That's gotta be rough.

Pfft, rest of the world should start following Finns on this and call everyone and everything 'it'! Except pets for some reason.
I know a guy who calls people "se" and things "hän"
Cut a bit of slack as the world adjusts to not making assumptions. Yeah "they" would have been better.

"it's" own money? I'm assuming you meant "its" but even then your teacher is an object?

Anyone who thinks this has never hosted a birthday party for a bunch of grade schoolers. I get enough pizza so they can have a couple of full pizza slices each, they take a few bites, then immediately go back to goofing around with their friends.
Then I have leftover pizza for a long time. XD
I think the joke is that a lot of us were little shits that didn't appreciate some of the only adults that cared to see us succeed.
True words, yet probably applies to every generation.
I have a handful of teachers who have had a great influence on my life and they were very happy that I reached out decades later to tell them so.
It's all about the intentions. Not the quantity.
For some reason those school party pizzas tasted so much better than normal
I feel like pizza always tastes a little better in social settings. Does anyone else feel that?
Food should always be enjoyed with others

Forbidden fruit.
It‘s not much but it‘s honest work!
Kid me: Pizza is pizza.
Adult me: Pizza is pizza, unless it's Papa John's.
i have never seen a meme this sad before
I learned recently that teachers in my area actually make decent money. Not like.. Tech industry money, but for my area they make $30/h on the low end, $43/h median, and $52.60/h on the high end.
That's a decent living that most people don't experience. I'm sure some places are awful for teachers though.
Based on the $ ima assume you're American and probably live in a high cost of living area, they get paid that much to compensate for high prices. They're probably as poor as the rest of us.

Future teacher here, my salary starts at 52$ CAD/hour, which is great! But I'm only paid for the time I'm in class, which is roughly 3h45 per day...
This pay doesn't include the time to prepare the class, the time to correct, the time to attend mandatory meetings on the lunch break. Finally, we don't have our vacation payed, so they split our pay to give us a salary during the summer (okay this last point is fair, but it illustrates that hourly salary in education is not representative).
So are we now just reposting all the old memes from reddit?
Well I don't go to Reddit so it works for me. Down vote if you don't like it.

Was this not the top post of all time from reddit? Huh.
It's not much.
But it's dishonest work.
