Why do US military base jobs pay much better than English teachers in Japan?


So I’m looking at military base jobs in Japan and I noticed that the low-skill level “store workers” pay much money than English teachers here. These are the type of jobs a teenager could do.

for example, this job

[https://www.usajobs.gov/job/748730100](https://www.usajobs.gov/job/748730100)

​

pays $16.44 an hour and they pay in USD. That comes out to about $2500 a month or 370,000 yen a month which is much more than the average English teacher makes. An English teacher would require a degree and to be smart – this job requires basically nothing.

Any reason the worst US base jobs pay much better than ESL jobs?
