How come it's wrong to stereotype teachers but it's OK to stereotype SLs and KPs?

interesting...based on past posts it seems like those promoted in 2022 were most disadvantaged...yet those promoted in 2021 got 9% adjustment
anyone tried clarifying with HR before?

One day the whole team can be asked to go or take a paycut because of covid or whatnot. I much prefer the stability that civil service offers. Yes, you won't be rich, but as if i will be rich working in the private sector also. I'm just thankful that the pay is fair, allows me to start a family, buy a house, own a brand new car and go for holidays every year guaranteed. Paid holiday if you will. What's there to complain? Colleagues not nice, then try to make them nice to you. Or change schools only.

Good point. For me, the key is to build your wealth until you reach a point of FU Money (google for this term).
Once you reach FU money, the teaching job is actually quite ok.
When P, HODs, colleagues, parents, students give you problems, just need to think "FU", like in that movie scene in The Gambler, and you will be able to chill more in the job =)

Waiting for big fat cheque montly and go travel at least once a year. (Most teachers do like to travel)
People are complaining because they see a drop of standard for the teachers nowadays.
To reduce the likes of the complainers? May ask well tell them to cease their existence.

because there is no reward for caring abt performance of specific students. just perform average and spend energy on gunning for KP ship. KPs are brazen enugh to even say nothing wrong with that.

In a normal year, it should be at least $500.

Income definitely varies according to ministry and role.
Cybersecurity vs teacher. We all know who will earn more.
SAF regular vs teacher…same.
The point is, just be grateful. Many teachers always pit themselves to people from other jobs or other ministries. Then why you come teaching in the first place if everywhere else so good? Teachers enjoy long holidays, other people got complain? Give and take. Be contented with what you have. If you can’t do that, then go elsewhere that pays more and stop complaining.
