The Beginning

I teach. I teach a subject most students, administrators, and other teachers don't care about; agriculture. Technically I teach more biology, anatomy, and physiology than agriculture, but hey I get to relate it to Ag so I guess that works.



Who ever came up with the saying "Those who can't, teach" never set foot in a classroom in an official capacity. It seems crazy though, spend 4 years of college, do another 2 to get a credential, take an unpaid internship, then get the "opportunity" to mold the minds of the future. YAY! I am in student loan debt up to my ears and I get to give kids bathroom passes. The irony of the whole situation is I am as, if not more, educated than most, but I choose to make my profession teaching and explaining stuff that is outdated once the kids get to college. Oh well, It could be worse. It could be working at Mc Donald's. (At least there you can spit in the food.)
