Houston, You Have a Problem

Have you looked at my transcript yet? I am waiting for you to post
yours.

You can not tell ONE SINGLE THING about your ability to teach from a
transcript.

Do you understand that? Do you agree with that?

If you did not answer yes to both of those questions, you will most likely
be a ****ty (very ****ty) teacher.

I've seen too many people come in to education as very well educated and
experienced in their fields, thinking that teaching will not be a problem,
and will be easy, and fall flat on their ass.

Humility would go a long way, here.

I predict you have none.

I don't recall.

Why would I post my transcript?

So OK -- I can teach college physics and that is a sign I can not do
engineering work ??? As my 12 daughter says -- WHATEVER!!! (Image eyes
rolling up as this is spoken :-)

So why are you not doing engineering? You can make a hell of a lot more
money, and I will assure you, that you will get to HATE the attitudes of the
kids and the system (of education) REAL quickly.

Mark my words, you will get sick of teaching. Don't put too many years in,
and have too much wrapped up in the pension program, so that you are trapped
and can't leave.

It's funny you say that. My co-owner's wife (acft content) works for
the fundraising foundation of a large university, and teaching
engineering pays rather well these days. The US seems to be in a
business mode of "hire engineer, develop product, fire engineer,
repeat..." that makes teaching lucrative.

I was shocked at what some engineering professors make!

I can see how taking "History of Witchcraft" would come in handy for
engineering work. :-)

It really was a good class. Great instructor. I learned the correct
answer to this question, "How many accused witches were burned at the
Salem witch trails?" Anybody know how many?

Yes. Geesh, you took a class to learn it was zero?

And why did Giles Corey allow himself to be pressed to death rather than
hanged? Did they teach you that?

Like I said. I am an engineer. Fortunetely I don't have to earn a
living by remembering the difference between brake and break. If I
did, I would starve to death :-)


Are you able to earn a living as an engineer?

I am starting a new career teaching pysics at a local college.

Strike three.
