Genuinely wondering, based on other threads it seems like a great job for a father. Of course if someone isn't cut out for it they shouldn't do it, but there are tons of guys who would be amazing Rebbeim but work instead, why?

Because unless your heart is consumed with teaching Torah to the next generation it is a sucky job.
The principal hates on you, the parents are impossible, and taking care of kids' needs physically, emotionally, and spiritually, is a huge responsibility.

I could say the same thing about Morahs…every time a thread about Morahs is opened there comes the inevitable comparison and people hate on it. If someone is so jealous of a Morahs hours compared to the pay, come join my school, we are desperate for teachers:)

My husband is in yeshiva administration.. They don't put in ads when a slot is available. They find the rebbi they want. It's coveted. Happens to be they pay relatively decently and do chasdei lev and yt checks and give raises....

I have no idea where you live, but I do know where you don't live. Where I live there are tons of applicants for every Rebbe job, there's a lot of competition as everybody wants to be a Rebbe.

Because it’s hard work for very little pay

You need to be “on” all day
