    Weird because when I was a pizza guy, I made more than I did as a teacher

      Well are you factoring in the costs to the automobile like they mentioned? As they say they are a hidden cost and can be quite considerable long term as delivering pizzas adds a lot of wear and tear on a vehicle. When I delivered a LOOOONNNG time ago the costs really did sneak up on me. It was a fun job, and initially I thought it paid well - till I got a couple surprises.

        I’m vastly smarter than you, but no longer a teacher. Pay couldn’t keep up.

          Well, you did go get a degree that scored you a job that pays less than a pizza driver, so I have to assume that you’re actually not very smart at all. ;)

          So long and thanks for the laughs. :)

            Lol fuck teachers amirite?

            No way they should be paid more.

            Anyway I’m currently making 6 figures. What do you make?

              Seven figures. Ooops.

              At the risk of embarrassing you further, “6 figures” is grammatically poor. “six figures” would be the correct option.

              I feel sorry for anyone you ever taught. Dumbass.
