Part of the reason our education system is fucked up is because of jackholes who insist on blaming the teachers and teachers' unions for everything that's wrong with the education system instead of looking at the problem of massive underfunding, non-caring administrators, uninvolved parents, lack of school discipline, and unmotivated students.

^ Fixed that for you.

I gotta agree here. Yes, some bad teachers slip through the cracks, like the one who showed us soft porn in class, but most of the time the problem resides in a lot of other areas. Teachers cannot be blamed for an overall and entirely corrupted system.

In fact, it was watching all the shit my good teachers got for everything that was wrong, even if they had no control or even no connection with the problem, that made me decide against teaching as a career option. I had wanted to be a teacher for years but with the shit they go through? So not worth it.

Same. I'm getting a six-figure job first and then retire early to tutor kids for free. Fuck the shit that is the education system.

If you can do that, go for it, anon. Good luck. I hope you achieve your goals.

I'm personally floundering trying to figure out where to take my career now.

I attended a job/career meeting recently. Two of the speakers stood out in my mind. One graduated with an engineering technologist certificate from tech college and is now the CEO of a communications company 20 years later. The other speaker majored in electronics and is now working in systems design. Both got their current jobs by moving up the ranks, gaining experience, and convincing interviewers at companies they want to work for that they DO have what it takes to do the job. Even if the job is something they didn't go to school for.

I don't know what your major is or how much leeway there is in your field. I think as long as you're a good employee and is willing to learn new things and advertise your strengths, you will be fine.

Good luck!
