I'm not sure what's worse, old people who think the road, not the sidewalk, is a good place to jog deciding to yell at me to slow down, or old people
pulling over to tell me what I can or cannot do in the middle of the street when I was a kid.

I actually have no problem with kids playing in the street - and moving out of the way.
But holding an office meeting in the street seems a little twisted. |

I agree with you on the office chair thing, though. I can only see the fun in it if they were racing each out down a sloped driveway into the street, only
after checking for traffic.

^ Maybe I would if it were the parents in the chairs.
but the kids are innocent. Their parents make them think that Jebus will save them. |

I became a math & business teacher AFTER I retired. I worked as an executive for a dozen years. Started a few businesses and sold some. Still have one
small manufacturing buisiness with a few employees. So now I teach 180 days of the year, go home before the traffic and then go to a hockey game or a show a
few nights each week. I have a great manager in place so I really do not have to do much with the business. Also, I purchase some industrial lots a few years
ago and even with this economy, the leases are doing well enough.

The teacher i hear complain about pay are always the ones who : 1) don't want to work summer school. 2) Do not want to invest in a side business or
activity 3) want to have the time off to goof off and 4) have a shit load of education debt (why do you have to go to USC if you want to be a teacher right
after graduation?)

Sorry AlwaysAwesomeAdam, I don't hate any of my students. They are wonderful kids. None have ever tried to seduce me because I am old and ugly. Most of
them pass my courses as I have a 95% pass rate on average (including Algebra II) and they all perform very well on the required stanardized tests and usually
out place the rest of the teachers at a school that has been ranked as one of the best schools in the state.
My experience is that once you meet parents, you understand if any of the kids are a little off kilter. |

You USE math (i.e. your computer is built upon said concepts). You just don't know how the fuck it works. ;)

AlwaysAwesomeAdam - everyone has their favorites. I encourage my students to follow their dreams. But learn everything you can along the way.
I suck at #3 ut do very well with your #7 & #8 |

AlwaysAwesomeAdam - my son became a pharmacist so #7 & #8 were important to him. Plus the starting pay was over 150,000 per year to start. Seems useful to
me.
