Whatever career pays $45k sounds like garbage. That’s $21.63/hour. You’d have to have zero skill to be paid that. We can’t even find college grads to interview unless we offer 70k+ salaries right out of school.

For a teacher who does an average of one hour of work each day after they get home it’s about $31/hour. Just saying. And $45k is the low end of what teachers get paid in my area.

I am a teacher. Not criticizing, just saying that $45k isn’t terrible in all cases.

You can’t just look at hourly rate. You need to include all cost of employment. I’d take a job paying $31/hr that has great health care and a pension over a job paying $38/hr with terrible healthcare and no pension.

Well, yeah. My example job usually has great benefits, including a pension, and 12 weeks off every year. And if you’re good at it it’s a lot of fun.
