Thats very cool. I have always only worked office jobs, and they are quite boring. It seems to be like that in society, the people who really makes a difference for others get paid the least amount of money.
I think you are special souls who do jobs like that, not thinking of status or money whatsoever. And you do make a difference for the kids, obviously. I couldnt do it, because it takes a whole different level of patience and willingness to work in a quite chaotic environment… Its impressive. You are a good person. :)
I appreciate the sentiment, but I get paid decent money, too. The “teachers don’t make anything” myth is really just select portions of the US. Once I am finished my masters, I’ll be well above the 6-digit mark in CAD.
Though you’re certainly on to something in that more impactful jobs tend to get paid less. Even in the school, watching the support staff who work with our highest need students, knowing that I’m probably a tax bracket above them… Well, it feels very unfair, to say the least.

I think everything is unfair in our lives. You know, stuff like looks, health, intelligence, parents, country, everything.
But it doesnt help that our societies are adding extra not needed unfairness on top :)
