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.

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. fidel-salute-big
