I suspect you dislike teachers. I teach at an FE college. Seriously, teaching is not what you imagine, it's hard work. Half-year holidays, never heard of it, can you direct me to where as a teacher I can have six months holiday a year, apparently you imagine we spend half the year moaning, frankly, I never get the chance to moan, too busy preparing lessons, marking, dealing with inefficient managers, dealing with mountains of paper and telephone calls from parents and telephone calls to parents. Add to this we are the most heavily monitored profession. Think on this: every successful professional was taught by a teacher(s).
When I do have holidays, I'm updating and preparing for future coursework and can only have a holiday when my wife, works in the caring profession, gets a chance for leave.
