Orange ponders...

My brain has spent the past few days persuading me I should become a Maths teacher.
How odd.
I've even started looking at PCGEs and SKEs.
Odder still

Doubt it will happen - kids see right through me and I'm not sure I can wield the appropriate level of authority.
Plus it'd be a fairly hefty pay cut at first. Not that pay is that important above a certain level in a job that gives you job satisfaction.

Hmm

Its not just the kids neither innit.
Sometimes the heads of department having a fondness for drinking water that is highly inflammable (i.e vodka) at work due to special medical problems (alcoholism) doesn't help (acquaintance in Leicester who am informed now works at a school with a non alcoholic head of department apparently).

Our first maths teacher at secondary school was often drunk in class and he wasn't a nice drunk either.
