I would either give medical school a try or I don’t know, I would really like to be involved in re-education, finding ways to de-chudify and de-libify people without bringing them to physical or emotional harm. Just helping people learn would be cool too. But obviously if the workers want me working in a mine, that’s fine with me as well.
This. I'd have considered life as a high school teacher but I can't stand the thought of dealing with parents when I try to cubapill their children.
I do love teaching college though, so or there's still higher Ed I'd probably keep doing it. Maybe a mix of the two....
If there's still academic publishing in an ethical manner I might try to publish a paper or two in my spare time, but if compensation were more equitable between teaching and research faculty I feel like I'd be more interested in teaching. I do love both.
