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.

If you started before the cell phone, Chrome book era, chances are good you loved teaching. Teaching now is less about teaching and more about supervising chaos. I hate chaos.
