The inference was in the original email, not in Mitzi's reply. Mitzi was
simply relating to it, not claiming it to be true.
I didn't quite understand your second point, but you get paid NIS 140 an
hour (gross) for marking Bagrut exams, marking logs and testing orally.
It's the same rate for everyone. And ALL Bagrut markers are teachers --
they have to be and they have to be active teachers. The job is in addition
to teaching -- marking Bagrut exams is not a full-time job. I taught 27.5
hours (24 frontal hours) this year AND marked Bagrut exams.
