Teacher who resigned after her OnlyFans page was discovered says new employer fired her for violating social media policy
Teacher who resigned after her OnlyFans page was discovered says new employer fired her for violating social media policy
Brianna Coppage said she made $1 million on the platform, which she was using to supplement her teaching salary.
Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her.
Edit: To those basically saying she had it coming because she made her OF account public...
- Sex work is real, valid work.
- There is nothing wrong with sex work. Sex-shaming is Puritanical horseshit.
- "But her students could find her OF!" is a problem their parents should have to solve. It is not her responsibility to use an alias, because of points 1 and 2.
- Every other argument criticizing her for her sex work during her non-teaching hours is fucking moot.
You're viewing a single thread.
Why look for a regular job? Continue OF for another year, retire with this fuck you money and do whatever you want.
I think she's just doing this for free promotion. Every article that's written about her she probably gets tons of new subscribers.
Yup, work the system for all it's worth. The damage to the reputation is long done, so bleed it dry.
While I don't think she should have been terminated from her role, I do wonder why this tactic seems to work so well.
Many smaller news outlets (especially in the UK) regularly run stories about a young woman going through employment disputes, being dumped in some way, or going through something borderline newsworthy, and many times these women have a OF page they actively promote.
I wonder if it's just easy stories from people that want to be promoted?
I don't want to dismiss the issue of people being fired for doing completely legal things, but I can't help but agree, this always seems to be the case. I saw an article recently about a woman struggling with other parents and teachers at school because of the size of her breasts. Seemed sad enough and didn't really understand why it was newsworthy, until I saw the mention of her OnlyFans and it all clicked haha.
If you follow the link another helpful commenter left, it's pretty obvious she's not interested in being an educator. She's using the controversy to promote her dick-sucking videos.
I mean.... for that salary and the work you must do, I am surprised anyone is interested in being a teacher.

She clearly chose to be born in a capitalist society, what a slut
You realize I'm criticizing the person shitting on the idea of teaching because it won't make you rich, right?
Nobody was talking about "getting rich" In some states you cant even live on a salary of a teacher and people are forced to work secondary or part time jobs. Of course, teaching is beter for sociaty than making videos for onlyfans, but I don't blame her one bit.
Right you were criticizing teachers for valuing more than money (probably so reflexively you don't know you're doing it) but sure I'm the devil here somehow
What are we here arguing about? You want teachers to be poor and be overworked from other jobs when even their primary is very hard? I don't get it. Why are you arguing here with people?. This is common sense. Pay people livible and fair wage. Nothing complicated about that.
Yes dipshit all of that horrible stuff. Or perhaps you could stop looking down your nose at them because that's so hard to figure out.
You're missing the forest for the trees. Teachers need to be paid more so that they can actually support themselves. Making derisive comments about people moving to other careers because they pay better is just attacking the wrong people. Making millions on OF is an extreme exception, but there are plenty of teachers who have left the education field to become a bartender or such, because teaching wasn't paying them enough to afford rent and groceries. Teachers leaving the field are the victims of this, get mad at the system not at the people trying to survive.
No, you don't get it. Every single person needs to grab their bootstraps and pull so hard that everyone is promoted to management! Then we'll all make management salaries. Having no employees left to manage, we'll resort to managing each other.

You're making a huge leap here and assuming a lot
I was simply saying it's kind of a shitty thing to say "I'm surprised anyone wants to be a teacher"
If I'm "attacking" anyone, it's that person
Not sure where you got that I'm attacking teachers.... Never did at all.
How about: it’s a good thing, so we should properly compensate people willing to do it and do it well. This is a societal problem, not a her problem.
Btw, putting the onus on the woman is something that misogynists would do, so you’re probably not really making any kind of point anyone would agree with except for maybe misogynists

I dont get what you meant then, without much context “good little capitalist” sounds condescending as fuck.
I'm still trying to figure out how I was insulting anyone but the poster. And how you think this is not offensive or condescending:
I mean.... for that salary and the work you must do, I am surprised anyone is interested in being a teacher.
But in the end it doesn't matter. We're all just being judgy based on a sentence or two.
I said that teaching is hard and has inadequate salary. People should stop doing it for that kind of money....because....that's how you force people to increase the salary. If you don't agree with that then idk what there is to talk about. I guess you just want people to be poor and miserable. Or do do you have better solution for this problem?
Next, so because you are insulting individual instead of group, it is somehow alowed and acceptable?
When I say to you: Bob Ross says you're a mistake.
That's fine then? Good to know.
Or maybe she's falling back on her only option after she had to quit and got fired.
she’s not interested in being an educator.
I think it's probably better to say: " she’s not interested in being an educator anymore. "
You are probably right now, but I'm willing to believe that she did at one point want to be an educator, but the financials didn't work that way. Can't blame her.
“Not having to get up and go to a 9-to-5 has been tough on my mental health,” Coppage said.
Sounds insane to me, but whatever, different strokes for different folks.
Most people need something to do. Being free all the time is rarely good for mental health.
So get a hobby.
Lacking external forces to structure your week and help motivate you? "Just be internally motivated!"
Develop an interest or a skill for God's sake
Her skill was teaching kids, probably wanted to keep doing that for fulfillment despite the poor pay. But they wouldn’t let her.
teaching kids online pays as much or more.
China was desperate for proper kids teachers to teach English and everything else (as opposed to the ESL teachers, or the "generic white people whose only skill was being born in North America").
She already has the equipment for it too.
If she gets financially stable from OnlyFans, she can probably find a way teach. There's no need to rot just because your time is free.
absolutely. online is super easy (to find work for someone with her training).
Thanks for the reply. But this is not what I meant. She seems politically locked out of schools, not inable to find application forms.
I was thinking more along the lines of non-profits which are always looking for volunteers. She could even spearhead an advocacy group with her current influx of money and fame
One can dream
ONLINE WORK YOU FUCKING RETARD.
"application forms". 🤦♂️
jeezus christ on a cracker.
What's going on with you man?
I'm pretty sure my mates mum would die if she ever stopped working, she recently had to slow it down and give up one of her 10 jobs.
I have no idea how people like this exist.
If it's your own business or hobby then cool. But people out there feel the need to do some sort of basic job is crazy to me.
... different strokes for different folks.
According to her videos, she has mastered several different strokes.
It's about structure and routine. A lot of people hospitalized for psych report issues with too much free time. And for a lot of people one of their only protective factors is a stable and satisfying professional life
Income isn't stable and isn't enough to be considered fuck you money.
A million in 6 months, I think if she could keep up near that for a couple of years, she could invest in something safe and live off of the gains.
if she could keep up near that for a couple of years
Which part of "not stable" did you not understand?
What part of “if” and “near” and “a couple of years” did you not understand.
That's a mountain-sized if pretending to be hamster-sized.
why would you need more than a couple million?
7% of $2mill is $140,000 dollars a year, and anything you don't spend just makes you more money.
Idunno, just didn’t do the math. I’ve definitely done it before and knew that at typical safe interest rates you can live comfortably off of the interest of…. Something in the realm of 1-10 million.
you can live comfortably off of $50k USD/yr, which at a shitty 3% interest is $1.7million.
But that's my point. You don't need more than $2million. The $3mil-$10mil in your range is crazy.
This is why we shouldn't just eat people with over 1000 million dollars, but even 50 million is an insane amount to need.
It was a vague statement, based off a vague memory, about some shit that doesn’t matter. Calm down.
yes, it was vague. And now you have been educated. You're welcome.
CALM THE FUCK DOWN NOW. CHILL OUT. FOR FUCKS SAKE WHY WON'T YOU CALM THE FUCK DOWN?
Jeezus christ on a cracker, that's how you sound, child. 🤦♂️
lol, I love how my
Calm down.
Was read as
CALM THE FUCK DOWN NOW. CHILL OUT. FOR FUCKS SAKE WHY WON'T YOU CALM THE FUCK DOWN?
That seems like a bit of a stretch, but hey, you’re the master estimator here. And apparently I’m just a psychotic child.
Your first message to me was fine, and my response was even keeled, simply explaining why I said what I did. But then you tacked on “crazy” in your follow up, which seemed a bit unnecessary. Now you’re calling me child. Idk….
Do you need a hug?
don't touch me.
in fact, I would discourage someone like you from having human contact in general.
it's plenty enough to be "fu" money, though.
Because maybe they actually love being a teacher?
Sorry you cannot be a teacher unless you're poor. That's why the pay is shit.
