What's wrong with teaching high school? In a (presumably) less-advantaged area?
What do you count as making it?
- weird-eye-issue 5y agoNot that
- boomboomsubban 5y agoThe person likely had unachieved dreams of actually earning a PhD and working at NASA, so I doubt they'd describe working for a pittance in a rural high school as "making it" either.
- kortilla 5y agoNothing. There is just no competition to be able to do so. You definitely don’t need to fake anything about nasa to get a job there either.
- nkrisc 5y agoNothing wrong with it. I just don’t think it is what most people would call “making it.” I personally consider “making it” being happy with what you’re doing, even if most other people wouldn't consider it "making it." But if you're someone who goes through the effort to lie about working for NASA and all that, I'm guessing this wasn't their idea of making it.
