Real-world vs. college world. Is college-world just fantasy world for fantasy people.

Work in the College World
Professors only work about half of the year at best, and most of that time only a half of an actual day. Summer is completely off, as are any holidays, as well as a long stretch in the winter, plus additional break periods. Basically they get paid full time wages for part time work.

Vs.

Work in the Real World
It is a deadly 9-5 grind. 5 days a week with only a few weeks of vacation.

WORK PRESSURE
Pressure in the College World
College professors are never questioned about what they know. Who could call them on their mistakes anyway? Their students? Who else is in the classroom to judge them? You will always know less about the subject than the teachers. Which means they are free from any real meaningful criticism of their jobs. Once they know a course very little ever changes, so they pretty much never have to learn anything new for the rest of their careers. We won’t even talk about high school teachers or below, as these ‘teachers’ were too lame to even become college professors.
Vs.
Pressure in the Real World
In the real world you are constantly being judged on your performance. If you fail at your job - you are fired. You have to perform every day, there isn’t any choice. Knowledge and procedures are constantly changing so you constantly have to figure out more and more, or never advance to a higher job. There are Supervisors and Managers who constantly observe and judge your performance.
