Probably no worse than teachers in FL or the rest of the southern states. Have you considered "moving" to get a better paying job? Have you looked into teaching in a private school? Have you searched the job search engines to find a better paying job? Have you checked with DOD (Department of Defense) to see about jobs in military post/base schools?
Frankly, from where you are sitting right now....you would do better if you invested about the same amount of money or even less and went to school to be an RV technician.... you'd make more to start, have regualr hours and actually have a work schedule....and your kids wouldn't wonder who it was who tip-toed in and out of the house all hours of the night.
I think its very possible that the recruiter was "optimistic" about the pay. I have lived in the south most of my life....and if your local pay is anything like it is here....its going to be more like $7.50 to $10.00 an hour.
Here's how to find out: Go on line to your areas job bank or newspaper or to this site:
http://www.ajb.dni.us and find the portal link for Mississippi, then search the jobs based on either the city or zipcode...and you will get answers. If the adds do not have hourly pay in them....they probably don't pay worth "spit".
I apologize if I sound antagonistic, but you asked the questions, and its only right for me to be as honest as I can be.
