Me: “Are there any other jobs that pay more than $10.50? I’m the only one working for my family and currently make $19/hr”
Them: “We have a substitute teacher position, but that pay depends on your level of education. What’s your highest level of education?”
Me: “O that would be really neat
I have a bachelors”
Them: “It would be $80/day!”
Me: “?
XXXXXXX, genuinely, do you actually feel that $80/day for someone with a bachelors degree (or without) to teach children, is worthy of an exclamation point?
Our education system is grossly underfunded
I know it’s not you, and that you’re just doing your job
But that would be less than the $10,50 for a janitor
Thank you for your time
And I hope things get better for us all.”
