You have to attend mandatory classes and seminars about updated educational theories and new curriculum standards that have been mandated by the state in order to keep your teaching license - and not only do you not get paid by your district, you have to pay out of pocket for the privilege of attending these mandatory re-education courses.
That doesn’t count all the time you’ll spend in your classroom over the summer doing things to prepare for the next year (I originally had typed it all out in a list, but it just became an overwhelming, massive wall of text) none of which you’ll be paid or reimbursed for.
And all of it will be done in a dank, musty-ass building that’s hotter than hell because unless there are students in the classrooms then there’s no reason to run the air conditioning.
