Brilio.net - In Indonesia, the welfare of honorary teachers is still a concern. This can be reflected in teachers' salaries which are far below a decent standard of living. Not to mention the unclear employment status and the workload which is sometimes no less heavy than that of civil servant teachers.
That's what this woman felt. He shared the nominal amount of his first salary which of course made him stroke his chest. The story can be seen in the TikTok video posted by the account @whoami1199.
The woman named Dina admitted that she had just become a professional teacher . Until finally he received his first salary. However, the numbers were far from the expectations he had imagined.

Dina admitted that her working hours were 5 hours of lessons a day. In my opinion, 1 hour of lessons pays IDR 30 thousand. In fact, Dina's salary expectations as a teacher were not set high. In the video, it can be seen that Dina only hopes for a nominal amount of IDR 600,000 per month.
He enthusiastically opened the white envelope. Even though it wasn't open yet, Dina didn't seem to have much hope. He also asked netizens who saw it not to be surprised if the nominal amount was found out later.

The moment the envelope was opened came. Instead of getting IDR 600,000, Dina apparently only received IDR 150,000 thousand in cash. After the money was taken out, the woman was still looking for hope. He rummaged through the envelope again, perhaps there was still something tucked away. However, you can be sure that the envelope is empty.
With a big smile on her lips, Dina realized that her first salary as an honorary teacher was only IDR 150,000. He himself was actually quite surprised by the salary because it did not match the initial calculations he had imagined.
"I'm really shocked, I thought it was calculated per accumulation, right? So multiplied by 4"
Dina now realizes that her calculations in one week are her salary for a month. Of course, he could only be grateful to receive the money. Even with heavy breathing.

The moment Dina shared her salary went viral and attracted the attention of netizens. Many of course feel sad about the salary of a teacher in Indonesia. They are required to make the nation's life smarter, but their welfare is not paid attention to. Many people certainly feel the same way as Dina.
"My salary when I first started teaching as a kindergarten teacher was 150 thousand a month, but thank God, now that I've been teaching for 10 years, my salary is 400," wrote the account @siscaulyana
"I feel you sis, that's why yesterday I supported the idea of improving teacher welfare," said the account @giggleso
"Honorary teachers at state schools are really small, except for the private sector, I wonder why the salaries of health workers are so small in Indonesia," said the account @fikaselvia443
"It's true, I feel like I'm a private honorary teacher. But thank God who is in control of Allah's sustenance, I'm sincere in teaching. Sustenance comes from wherever there is. It's enough and enjoy it. Compared to working in a factory,"
