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.

    Hey, I’m stepping back and disengaging. I find this unproductive and I’m not interested in the places you are taking this discussion, I don’t think your characterization really matches what I think and I feel like it is unnecessarily hostile, I am sorry I do not agree with you or share you enthusiasm about public education or school.

    I don’t think teaching is a good idea for people who are already burning out. I’m am honestly glad and unironically happy for you that you seem to care a lot about public education, I hope you go into teaching and have a better experience than I did.
