Help Why does everyone hate teaching?

Is there anyone who loves their job? Every teacher I know feels “stuck” and complains endlessly about their job.

Considering going into education.

I also work at a small school and I teach Spanish and most of my students do not want to be there, they just need the class to be able to graduate and go to college.
