Good thinking Mike. Never settle, and consider all options. Times of crisis often present unexpected opportunities. Consider all your assets, and think about what *you *really *want *to do. If it brings you peace, or joy, it's probably worth a little inconvenience, or a small cut in pay.
Several years ago, I went from the fast track in advertising to teaching middle school, and I've never looked back. Not a job for everyone, but I love every minute I'm in the classroom and feel a sense of accomplishment on a daily basis. My soul is fed, and so is my family :) Have you considered teaching? :) Chris On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 9:40 AM, Mike Hungerford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thank you, everyone.
