1. What is one thing that worries you right now?

2. Does the weather by you think it is fall/winter/spring or summer?

3. How is your calendar for October? Slow, medium, busy?

Well, school teachers have assigned breaks.  They eat lunch when their students do and that's in place all year long unless school schedules change.

Another condescending post.  Your own kids work hourly and so do many adults.  Morty has said she's salary, So are school teachers judging by the way you call it bord, I mean they have contractual hours and they have assigned breaks.  These kind of posts come across over and over as rude and snobbish, You know there really are dedicated school teachers working by the hour every single day.

"Your job isn't that big of a deal," Did you mean for this to come across as rude and insulting as it did? Why would you feel the need to tell someone that her job is basically unimportant? And how would you know, anyway?

No more than your familiarity with others jobs you think are so far removed than your own.

Why in heaven's name do you think it's condescending to point out that Morty stems to have some trouble conceptualizing what it's like NOT to work on the clock when post after post after post shows that she does. There is NOTHING wrong or demeaning working by the hour. Many workers do, including highly-trained/educated professionals. Many highly-trained professionals have assigned hours. I get that. But Morty doesn't seem to get that many don't. There is nothing "snobbish" about saying so. You really do get your nose out of joint over the oddest things, Jamblessed.

"No more than your familiarity with others jobs you think are so far removed than your own." What does than even mean, Jamblessed? I've been in the paid work force for 46 years. I've held a wide variety of jobs. Until I started teaching, they were all hourly, even the job that paid far more than my teaching job.
