Rural Teacher: ‘Cry me a river’

A Huckleberry Teacher Friend has been following the squabble started when a Current Trends Graphiq, a national online site, ranked Coeur d’Alene worst in the nation in a Nov. 30 story, “The Worst-Paying Cities for High School Teachers. The teacher, who works in a rural high school in North Idaho, writes:

” All the talk about the low teacher pay in CDA has me thinking — “Cry me a River.” I would make $12,000 more a year if I worked for CDA School District with my experience and education level. I’m sure most small school teachers are rolling their eyes and feeling really sorry for the teachers in CDA School District right now.”

Question: It’s a matter of perspective, I guess. Right?
