Teachers have simultaneously:
A) been stripped of the ability to do anything about poorly behaved students
B) been pressured to pass students no matter what
C) been tasks with taking on more and more responsibilities that used to belong to parents
D) been vilified and blamed for every problem in society.
So…why the job dissatisfaction? It’s a mystery!

In 2008, 62% of teachers said they were very satisfied with their job.
In 2022, that dropped to 12%.
We've got a serious problem brewing in education...

I really feel like work days should be 10am-3pm or 9am-2pm. There’s really no reason for people to be at work MOST of their life. It doesn’t even take that long fr
Let people go home and have time for their families, partners/friends, hobbies, REST, & health! That’s why everyone is so miserable today.
