Nurses and social workers also work outside their paid hours. I work in a nursing home and the typical nurse is there an hour after her shift finishing computer work five days a week. Social workers have more irregular extra hours, but they have them. Also teachers aren’t scheduled for an 8 hour day so their extra hours compared to those other jobs shouldn’t begin being counted until they work more than 8 hours. I know many teachers work far more than 8 hours. But I wonder if you added up the hours worked per year how it would compare.
