Comment on Why are public school teachers so underpaid in the US?
innermachine@lemmy.world 6 hours agoBeing on my fiance healthcare vs paying private party is saving us 1k a month each. Not to mention dental, vision, and life insurance. She easily gets near 3k a month worth of benefits, although her take home pay isn’t great. My job has no benefits but pays more, she sometimes feels as though she doesn’t pull her weight and I have to remind her how much were NOT spending due to her benefits! If she lost her job I would have to quit mine and scramble to find one that would offer benefits to cover both of us.

it’s really the best of both worlds when you have a partner with state benefits
