Spartacan,
Teaching? Jumping from the frying pan into the fire!
Teaching isn't the career it once was and I'd advise anyone against going into it!
My mother, sister, brother-in-law and cousins are all teachers and have left or are looking to leave the profession.
Long days, none of this finishing at 4pm, preparation time on top. Lack of discipline in the class room becuase your hands are tied behind your back. Chairs flying across the room - I jest not -because "Johnny is "hyperactive" and doesn't do this at home." The list goes on.
Don't forget to give up your saturday morning to help out with the football team...
Flying ain't the best career in the world but neither is it the worst. Every company, organisation wants there pound of flesh. Just flying pays a bit more than most.
