In the United States, the median annual salary for flight attendants was $68,370 in May 2023. The lowest 10% of flight attendants earned less than $39,580, while the highest 10% earned more than $104,100.
The average teacher salary in the United States for the 2023–2024 school year is $71,699, according to the National Education Association (NEA). The average starting teacher salary is $44,530.
How many teachers moonlight as strippers. And is there a Pornhub category for that?

Here's a crazy idea: If you're a multi billion dollar company, then pay your employees a salary that they can live on, in reasonable proximity to their place of work.

Also union labor is a double-edged sword... unions can get you lots of good stuff, but you can also get stuck with an out of date CBA in a bad economic climate, with no leverage. All the big majors missed the latter fate by a matter of months IMO. Recruiting/retention were THE big drivers of our gains a year or two ago... but nobody needs that today in 2024 (well maybe boeing).
Since "living wage" was mentioned, what is that exactly? Enough for a 40 y/o single mom to raise three kids with all the middle class trimmings plus college? There are plenty of jobs which simply cannot support those economics. I might pay $7 for a cappucino if I happen to be walking by the coffee shop but raise it $17 and not a chance. I have a very nice espresso machine at home, and if I didn't already I buy one pronto. A single 20-something person might be perfectly happy as a barista, but most don't need the full living wage of a suburban household head.
Not every job needs to be a career, I'd argue that many should not be.

Teachers ......can't speak for the ones in Illinois or Texas, but in New Jersey and New York (where like EWR is) are compensated VERY well. That is not to say they are not deserving of such compensation. They have a very STRONG union that advocates and negotiates on thier behalf, which teachers in some states don't have such a strong union. They also get the entire summer off and EVERY weeekend.
Im not sure whose side you are on, but I have never met a teacher in New Jersey with tenure who quit to become a flight attendant. I have met flight attendants who were trying to acquire their teaching credentials.

Flight attendants do not get compensated with a salary, they work just like you by the hour......and if they are reserve they get MMG.
