ok use a couple jobs that I didn't mention if you want to. you're right those two don't do much prep time, they don't make much money either.

the jobs I mentioned prior are all salary jobs that make a decent living and require extra input just like the teaching profession.

those are examples of what happens when unions run things and rather then give in a little will let people lose their jobs. let companies go out of business let homes be foreclosed on.
