Re: Teaching
Only People who actually LIKE teaching should teach. If one is really in love with teaching, other considerations (such as what other people think) do not matter. In other professions, one can be unsatisfied with her job but it doesn't really hurt others much. Teaching and Medicine are the professions where one has to be 'committed' with heart, since you are dealing with two of most important elements in OTHER peoples' lives.
Politics are a part of every organisation, from Kindergarten to Microsoft.
