Her education was a lot more involved that learning how to shelve books and other facets of "library science". She's been a nurse for over 15 years. In that time, she's been insulted by racists and arrogant feminists, treated like a maid by many patients and a slave by doctors, and had to do all sorts of unpleasant things that most people are too squimish to face. How many time have you had to clean up adults who shit or vomited all over themselves? She has done that and more countless times. In her career, she has done many good things and even saved several lives. Last year alone, she was the first person on the scene when someone had a medical emergency (truck accident and diabetic shock) while going about our ordinary lives. In both cases, she rendered first aid until the paramedics arrived. For all of that, she's finally advanced to the level where's she's paid about 2/3rds of what a beginning dental hygenist makes. For all she does, she and her fellow nurses were insulted by that asshole Hillary Clinton back in the early 1990s when she said no nurse deserved more than $10 an hour. You want to complain about dealing with the public, try being a nurse.

As for me, I left teaching because I decided that while being an enlisted man had made me used to poverty, I no longer enjoyed it, especially after getting married. I went back into the military where I had to deal with asshole liberals who insulted me, back-stabbing office politics (yes, it happens in the military, too), being separated from my family for 2 full years out of 7 (in 1990 alone, I was gone for 6 months, came home for 4 weeks, was gone for another 5 months, came home for 10 days and had to leave for another 2 months), and a host of other things that comes with the uniform like 6 years of rotating shift work and frequent 18 hour days, sometimes for months at a time. I did things like engineer a software patch for the DCSC-III satellite that saved several million dollars and other things that saved millions more, in addition to doing my regular job.

Then the world changed and we decided to draw down the military. It was the proper decision but over 500,000 of us found ourselves out of a job while some on the Left were screaming that wasn't enough. After getting out, I had to start all over to rebuild a career at age 35. I went to school, finished two masters degrees in 3 years, and began working my way back. It took several years to regain the income I'd made as a Captain but life has generally been pretty good. Part of that comes from working to improve life for my family and never worrying about what other people choose to own or do with their own money. Jealosy is such a wasteful and hateful thing.
