Those who can't do, teach...and those who can't teach, chill out in the rubber room

700 NYC TEACHERS ARE PAID TO DO NOTHING

NEW YORK – Hundreds of New York City public school teachers accused of offenses ranging from insubordination to sexual misconduct are being paid their full salaries to sit around all day playing Scrabble, surfing the Internet or just staring at the wall, if that's what they want to do.

Because their union contract makes it extremely difficult to fire them, the teachers have been banished by the school system to its "rubber rooms" — off-campus office space where they wait months, even years, for their disciplinary hearings.

Holy shit are you kidding me? These teachers are getting paid 70 grand a year to do NOTHING!!! I have 3 things to say to this: Sign. Me. Up.

VERDICT:
suddenly becoming a nyc teacher is the 2nd best job ever, right after living on a tropical island in australia. (update: bump both of those 1 spot down the list. this is officially the best job of all time)
