Picture of the Day: Seoul Teacher Protest
A group of part-time teachers stages a rally in front of a government building in downtown Seoul on Sept. 9, 2017, to demand the government employ all irregular part-time teachers as regular full-time ones. (Yonhap)
Having been a sub for a year, it is a tough gig. Academic day labor.
You put your name in at several school districts, and hope for a call. No call, no money. No money over Thanksgiving, no money over Christmas, and of course, no money in the summer Luckily, Spring Break was split over 2 weeks so I was able to teach every day.
There are normally 20 school days in a month, I was usually able to teach (and get paid) for 18 of those days. Had to quit because the money just wasn’t steady enough. Maybe after I retire.

Does anyone even bother finding out what things mean anymore? Idiots.
What is an irregular part time teacher? If they are substitute teachers they are asking to get paid for doing nothing? What idiots.
