School Teacher Quits After Six Years To Work At A Walmart Because It Pays $12,000 More Per Year

Without using his degree, a school teacher who functioned as a reading tutor as well as a Second Grade tutor with six years experience has left teaching in a United States of America school to work as manager of Walmart.

Seth Goshorn, 28, former teacher in northern Ohio has opened up about why he stopped teaching to work at Walmart.

The now Walmart manager shared his story on TikTok by posting a short clip showing a blue Walmart uniform on display just as a footballer signed to a new football club does.

Although he did not expect his TikTok post to go viral, Seth Goshorn told Good Morning America thathe switched jobs because the Walmart will give him $12,000 more, compared to what he took working as a teacher.

“Leaving teaching after 6 years to go be a manager at Walmart and make more not using my degree,” he wrote, wearing one Walmart uniform and holding up another.

Goshorn is still in love teaching as a noble profession, but told Good Morning America he changed jobs for one reason: the money.

“It was a lot better than I think people are used to and what people would expect,” 

“I absolutely don’t want this to be that I’m just trying to discourage anybody from becoming a teacher,” he told GMA. “That’s not the case. I just want my teacher friends to be paid as they should be.”

“Think about how good our teachers can be if they could focus on just teaching, and not have to work a second job on the weekends,” he continued. “They didn’t choose to have to work a second job that comes along with it, and that’s the thing that I would have loved to see go away.” -he said.

During the previous year, he made $43,000 teaching in Ohio’s Stark County. Meanwhile, he said he’ll make $55,000 a year before bonuses at a Walmart in Massillon, Ohio, as a stocking 2 coach, which includes ensuring delivery trucks are unloaded.
