Teachers – They make a very high salary especially after a few years, despite very high competition and relatively low entry requirements for the job. Again the reason being it’s a unionized government job.

I will be a certified Ontario Teacher by April.

Time to retire when I'm 40.

I mean the benefits alone.

Summer's off, paid sick leaves, etc.. Not to mention that they reach their upmost salary ceiling only after 5 years of teaching.
RNs make a lot of money, my good sis berberocka is going to earn $100,000 a year. Lord.
I agree TTC workers are overpaid. I wonder if Mississauga Transit follows the same pattern?
