Missed Opportunity or Dodged A Bullet


Posted: Jun 17, 2017

You reach a time in your life where thinking back over the years you remember things, people, places - some you get sad over and some you breathe a sigh of relief for not having gone there or done that. What's yours? Be as frivolous or as serious as you like - past or present. I think I narrowed my studies in college too much and missed opportunities for other career options. Too old now to go back, but this has always felt like a missed opportunity for me now. I dodged a bullet when I didn't stay in a relationship everyone kept telling me to. Met the right person after that...;

Instead I was making excellent money in another field so I chose to not go. Regrets? Oh yeah...

Finally something on the games board! - should have taken up engineering!

Was selected on merit for B.tech ... decided to pursue pure science instead. .. graduated in physics.. for what ? all my education a waste cos am in this field .. gave up teaching to be here ... cannot believe I got lured so easily . want to go back to teaching but not sure I can cope with that after rotting here for a decade and a half

Quit rotting here and go teach - Val

You CAN cope. You will enjoy talking about energy and thermodynamics. Anything besides listening to ESL mangling those endless viral syndrome visits. Look for a teaching assistant or tutor position if you're worried about classroom control (?). You will have a lot more autonomy and pride in doing a good job.

You're not dodging the bullet... - You can do it

Consider teaching again - make this your "I dodged a bullet" by not staying here any longer than it takes you to get back to what I bet is your gift - teaching! Your country needs you :)

I would love to see Republicans start "caring" about women, Hispanics and gays, but how are they going to get that across while voting against these groups?   For example, how can the Republican party possibly get more gay votes when they continually shoot down gay marriage?   From the project: The Republican Party needs to stop talking to itself. We have become expert in how to provide  ideological reinforcement to like-minded people, but devastatingly we have lost the abilit ...
