^ That's actually pretty decent. I have considered being a primary/high school teacher as I enjoyed teaching other people throughout my schooling life. Best thing I like about teachers are the holidays they get.. 12 weeks of holidays > 20 days annual leave lol

I have been a teacher for over 30 years and I have never been able to take '12 weeks holidays'. I have had to spend a lot of that time marking the work from the previous term or preparing for the upcoming one or both.

Ah okay! Well, I guess it's somewhat less stressful than an occupation in engineering, law or business in terms of the amount of time in/outside the office working for your firm/school.
