Yeah teaching sounds like such a terrible deal from my understanding.

Teachers have almost unrivalled bargaining power. They can stop society functioning if they go on strike - there is already a a teacher shortage, so no chance at scabs. The state teaching unions should be leveraging this to ensure they aren't getting cooked over working hours.
