Teachers could be called overpaid compared to barstaff.

£5.50 an hour and they make Saturday nights bliss!

Unsociable hours too!

I think it depends on how you define "well paid". As teaching is defined as one of the professions, it's generally quite poorly paid, when compared to those such as Doctoring, Accounting, etc, but on the other hand, nurses also have to have degrees and I believe are paid worse...

Looking at the opportunity, they should have a queue around the block.

A chance to be an apprentice at an entrepreneurial firm like that should be torn off and taken with haste.

It's not about the money. That is a distraction. It's about the long term benefits.

No-one gets paid properly in the first few stages of their career (there are exceptions of course). It's about building skills, knowledge, contacts ect ect.

those crazy quant/HTF guys at investment banks are massively overpaid in my experience.
Much like the compliance department ;)

How many have been pondering 1) Can I get away with earning less money, 2) how can I tell the Mrs?

Perhaps they need some young people to sit in the stock cupboard sorting all those Butterfly clefts out   :D

Should you not be teaching rather than looking on this forum !! (This is a joke btw)
I visited the forum earlier when a class was working well, felt a bit guilty and briefly considered whether I should check some work or have another ten minutes on the forum...

You're still sat in the classroom with 5 missed calls of the wife aren't you?

I'll go home, just let me read one more thread......
