Must've changed a lot in the decade I've been out of school. I remember teachers in particular being stressed and underpaid. As a student I also had bigger workloads and similarly long days compared to being a working professional in the software industry - the only saving grace being that I had excellent grades without doing homework and written homework that was to be graded, I'd usually do in recess, as I don't think I'd've survived finishing my homework at 6 PM when my school day started at 8 AM.
Truly, I've never worked so hard as when I were still in school
