Administrator and Teacher's Cry: Not Enough Vacation

The main cry of the administrators and teachers against year-round schooling is vacation time. When thinking about a majority of jobs, there is a certain number of days one can take off. That is not the case for teachers. Traditionally, they get all school holidays off, vacation time, sick leave, and most of the summer months. They must not consider the number of vacation days compared to other typical jobs. These administrators and teachers would have a absolute fit if they were in a doctor's shoes, which basically work 24-7. Some complain that they only get two weeks off a year, at the bare minimum. That is just selfish. I do agree that it takes a special person to teach our up and comming generation, but it is also a job. It's not like vacation time is took away all together. College teacher's and administrators can teach all year-round. Why can't the others?
