I worked the kitchen for a college cafeteria as my first Job. I sold drugs prior. I was 20 or so and fuck it made me lose scoop much respect for college. It just seemed like more high school
Edit: I feel like my geography/social studies (one class) and French (separate class and it was French immersion) was the best teacher and what I would have wanted. He'd give us an entire unit of test, so like 50 pages and we had a month to answer thst stuff. He'd be up there grading shit cause he taught a lot of classes so you could go talk with him and otherwise he booked all the new laptops the school had thst no one used and let us go to the library whenever qr wanted and if you did t show up or so the workz sucks to suck. Our end of the year thing was doing an essay about the fundamental nature of competition and he took me aside and said mine was one of the best things he'd read and it changed his mind on the topic and my 17 year old idiot ass made a 58 year old French opera singer go from libertarian to Marxist before I had Eben looked into Marx. It felt really awesome.
Also having done French immersion since primary, he was rightfully shocked and mad as fuck to find out none of us were good at French and hadn't read any French literature or been exposed to French cultural stuff and he got really mad, not at us but our previous teachers for half asking their jobs cause he genuinely gave a fuck about the stuff he was teaching enough to get mad about it. This scared most other people but I loved it, he was equally passionate about geography and did a whole thing about ecological history that was for sure nothing the curriculum. Just pure no bullshit, you're here to learn, here's info, read up on it, I'm an expert and I'm right here, come ask me whatever but find shit out for yourself. It was perfect for me specifically and sucked for everyone else.
