1) What is your current job or title? Professor.
2) Overall, are you happy with the career you are currently in? Very much.
3) What do you like most and least about your current job:
Most? Contact with young people, making a difference in their lives. Also, I schedule my own time and hardly ever see a boss, and when I do I work well with him.
Least? Some of the demands, usually from outside sources: people assuming that because you are a writing teacher you are available to review their manuscripts, serve on their boards, etc., perhaps as people always want to ask a doctor about health concerns. You feel compelled to help, but when you're asked to read a 220 page manuscript, you usually have to say no! Beyond this there a very few things I don't like about this job. Even the more difficult challenges are interesting.
4) What career would you choose today if you had complete freedom of choice and no financial concerns? Probably exactly what I am doing, though I have some additional dreams with writing and music that I am working on. I feel blessed by the work I get to do.
Anyone willing to help me with this will get the gratification of knowing they helped me in obtaining a much coveted 'a' on this here project. ;D
Thanks so much (an early thanks)
