Like I said, there is always more than a one-sided story and many teachers would be more tolerant of school system ups and downs if they felt they were working for equal compensation.

If someone is going to try to say that I am making too much money as a teacher, I am surely going to tell them they are sorely mistaken. If it wouldn't have me "found out", I'd have no problem posting my monthly take home pay and compare that to my required living expenses. Then, tell me I live on Snob Hill and don't deserve a pay increase.

You don't know that both husband and wife are teachers on Snob Hill. I live in a teeny tiny town where name goes further as well, but could easily commute ~1 hour in any direction to Corporate America.
