Overpaid Jobs

So I was listening to a local radio station the other night on the way home from Daniel's basketball game. The DJ was asking people to call in and say what they thought were the most overpaid jobs out there. The first person that called in immediately said that teachers were the most overpaid people. (If you don't already know this, I am a 3rd grade teacher). I immediately shot my most evil looking teacher glare at the radio as I continued to listen to this person talk about overpaid teachers on the radio. The person continued on to say that teachers should only be paid minimum wage for every hour that they work. As I was digging into my pocketbook for my cell phone so I could call into the radio station, one of the radio station people got on the air to talk to the person. The first thing they asked the caller was how old she was. She said she was only 13. At this point, I immediately started laughing, but still felt the need to call into the radio station to express my true feelings. The radio people went on to basically say that the caller had no clue what she was talking about since she was only 13. I don't know about you all out there, but I think teachers are severely UNDERpaid for the mess that they deal with on a day to day basis. Of course, I have a somewhat biased opinion since I am actually a teacher, but I'm sure you all will agree with me that teachers are NOT overpaid. :)
