>mfw school teachers make more than I will as a mechanical engineer
Why am I working so hard in school for the promise of shit pay? Why aren't engineers paid like doctors?

Then why are you majoring in engineering if your goal is to simply chase money?

School teachers require a double-major bachelors and a masters degree, I don't know what you're bitching about.
>>989328
No they don't.
What country are you in? Unless they have tenure they don't make jack fucking shit pay.

Taking into account hours worked, teachers still come out on top, though.

They need a major in Education plus a major in whatever they're teaching (Chemistry, History, Biology, English, Physics, Mathematics, Sucking Dicks for $1, etc.)

Teachers actually work quite a lot and have to put with a lot of shit and a job that progresses no where.
It's no wonder teachers are so shit, the life is drained right out of them.

No they don't. Those aren't double majors. Those are specializations. Most middle school math teachers never had to take linear algebra, m8.
