...that was entirely too creepy, even for you, jimothy.
im speaking only with the knowledge of the teachers in my area, whose benefits outweigh those of the "average job," in terms of both range and value.
additionally, there are a number of jobs, salaried and otherwise, that do not receive benefits at all -- and many more who receive not-so-great benefits (like my last job).
lump that in with tenure and the constant hiring needs (relative to most any other job), and those're some pretty sweet plusses.
