I love this article, because I love hearing about people becoming teachers, and I think people who've been successful elsewhere would be great. Half of my learning curve my first two years teaching was learning to work as an adult, something no amount of internships or part-time jobs taught me.
We teachers are lucky in that no matter what else about our job--the hours, the stress, the random shin splints from running like crazy around the pumpkin patch--we have meaning in what we do. The essence of what these people are searching for is meaning in their work. Why work without it? At the end of the day, I know my work matters.
