Teachers counting down the days.

My wife is a teacher. She doesn't count the days left in the year, but she does get giddy like a kid when there's a snow day!

She started teaching summer school yesterday.

I envy her time off. But, with countless hours of education more than me, and 2-3x the work experience I have, she's still getting paid less than I do, and always will be. The only way she can get any significant pay raise is to move into administration. Those positions are tough to get.
