Today's Sign of the Apocalypse

While the salary information for teachers is publicly posted, generally, salary information for private sector workers is not.

Nonetheless, sometimes you can figure things out. For example:

• A "front desk manager" at MHS, also known as the Centene Corporation, which is a HIP health insurer, makes $34,000 - $37,000/year.
• An "elementary school teacher" in IPS starts off making $34,890/year.

So, to be clear, our society values sitting behind a front desk more or less the same as it values an elementary school teacher. Revealed preferences sure are a bitch, aren't they? I, for one, would gladly join any teacher's picket line in full solidarity.
