I am so tired of the coporate drivel being shoved into my job, (teacher btw) and I am tired of being told to read from a script because of some data that has nothing to do with my students, or their lives, or the fact that the data is always either 5 or 10 years (which is always old data when you deal with a new batch of kids every school year, so what works for one group set may not work for the next due to tech, politics, family life, and bunch of other factors.) This job pays extremely well, but not enough for me to keep putting up with it.

It is moments like this I wish I didn't leave medicine, that I did try to find my way into doing forensics, but I don't hate teaching, I absolutely do love it. I'm just sick of the constant demand of doing more and more and more. I am no martyr, and I refuse to be one.

But gods do I wish I took every opportunity I had as a kid to have learned computers, science, and stick to medicine when the job market was better.

Here's just hoping things last as much as they can.

The only nice thing is, with the extra cash I get I have been able to treat myself to the artwork I get, to going out and seeing a movie at least once or twice a month, and even affording myself small moments of pleasure when I otherwise don't have the means or moment for myself to do so.

Is what it is, and is what I could try and make it be (if things are willing.)
