Ideally: 1. Attend an in-state university. 2. Look at your school's graduation report, which surveys students by major on their starting salary 3. Choose a program with a high starting salary 4. Take all general education classes online at a community college, starting the summer after high school graduation
This is the most probable way to achieve a high roi on college, for an average american.
Initial Conditions really don't mean much in the long term trend. Short term, sure.
So many teachers transitioned to grading stuff strictly during class hours so they can dip faster than students could
Over the previous months of September-December I binged-ate donuts multiple times a week, partly due to lockdown depression. I developed numbness and tingling in my arms & wrists. [I'm young in mid 20s].
Cut sugar since the new year and no more tingling/numbness.
In essence, teachers aren't working >30 hr a week. They get 2 weeks winter break, 1 week spring break, ~2.5 month summer, most every Monday holiday off. So they work about 9 months a year.
On top of that, they receive the amazing lifetime CA Pension which is like 90% of your top 5 earning years.
I looked up my teacher's salaries from high school. They make more than my CA public university STEM professors make.
About 5 years into teaching, a high school teacher will make about 60k/year regular + 25k/year in benefits. Tenured will make 120k+ in base and benefits. That is pretty good for an average of 25 hour workweek, 9 months a year.
Nothing stopping them getting another job that works between the hours of 3-10pm during the school year, putting them closer to the hours a GS analyst would work.
I know lots of 'lower totem pole' employees with a nicer WFH setup than many managers.
From what I've seen, there is a more significant reason higher ups like WFH. PG wrote an essay about the creators schedule versus the managers schedule. A managers schedule (the higher ups) spend their day flip flopping between meetings during each hour increment. Imagine having to walk/transport to a different building on/off campus for a new meeting a many times a day. It can take a lot of valuable time & potentially be exhausting. In WFH, you just click a new link to join a zoom meeting. Much more convenient.
The people doing the low level work such as coding tend to be younger. They are looking to make office connections and define their career path. Working out of an office allows for progression in both.
Recently I tried to convert to a windows laptop from my 16 inch mbp. Upon switching I was constantly annoyed by the fan noise & using my pinkie to press the 'control' key opposed to macbook thumb on 'command' key.
The point is, I realized native port selection was not a metric to consider when purchasing a laptop. I am fine bringing an adapter to the meeting room.
I guess it comes down to what you value. I am just trying to play 'devil's advocate' with my anecdotal experience compared to your experience.
Anyone have a fix?
The solution is (unfortunately) to spend money on the lg ultrafine 5k or studio display. These have a higher PPI compared to every other monitor on the market. I run my lg ultrafine at native scaling. No more headaches and my productivity using macos 10x'd.
