Since companies don’t care about a Bachelor degree, I decided to see how I will do in Teaching. Today, I got accepted by the Houston Independent School District to begin my alternative certification training. I qualified to teach everything exceptmusic and art for grades Four through Eight. Once I’m done with the training I can take some additional College courses to qualify to teach in High School, but I may just stay at the lower grades. And if any of you have kids, you’ll probably agree. I have two teenage boys, so I know what I’m talking about. I coached flag football teams for 3 years for 4th and 5th graders, and I had a blast.
Finally, I worked hard for 5 years to get a BBA degree and not one IT interviewer cared. I can better utilize what I learned in college by teaching children, which is what I’ve been wanting to do anyway.
Is this a cop-out? Call it what you will. This is my life and I do what I want. With my wife’s help, of course. Now all I do is sit in my hot tub every morning at 5:00 a.m., and wait to start my training in June.
