i hate my cushy bullshit job where i make obscene amounts of money. should i quit my job and become a teacher? here's what i'm thinking so far:
pros:
- i won't hate my job anymore
- my job is a real job where i actually contribute to society
- summer vacation sounds dope
cons:
- maybe i still hate my job
- my job would be a real job where i do work
- i won't make obscene amounts of money
- wtf grad school is expensive
alternatively, are there other jobs i should try to do instead? mind you i have no skills and would probably need to go back to school.
No. I already said they shouldn't.
That does happen and it is terrible and it has contributed significantly to my own decision to leave the profession. Again, once again, my point is that doesn't mean that teaching itself or the public school system should as a whole be abandoned or abolished. It is in dire need of improvement and restoration, even if that currently seems out of reach.
Saying "it's all propaganda" sounded to me like a defeatist condemnation of public schools in general.
ok i think we just agree altogether but read it differently. i just read it as complaining about a part of the job but i can understand why you'd read it that way. sorry for being confrontational
Yeah, I think it's a difference of interpretation.
It's all good, comrade.
