My wife is a preschool teacher at a private christian school with a huge church attached to it. The church is in an expensive area of very wealthy people. They get huge donations. However, my wife makes $16/hr in a state with a $12.30 minimum wage. She loves her job and won't quit. Luckily I make enough to support the family, so her income is more for savings. But really? $16/hr? WTF. My son on the other hand just got his first job at a pizza ship. He makes $12.30/hr plus tips. The tips are really nice and he ends up making $18-$19/hr. Does not compute.

Okay, I know this isn't the typical post for r/antiwork but my jaw dropped when I saw this posting for U. Maryland. It requires a Ph.D., requires teaching 3 to 4 classes per year, so two/two fall/spring semesters, *and* you are assistant director for this program. The pay: $35 to 40k… like, fuck off, seriously?? Look I accept responsibility for the student loans I took out to get my doctorate but I will be damned if I am going to take a job that pays this laughable salary. Lecturer and Asst. Director
