3. What a shocker.

Why aren't all those sentient college students rushing to enroll in teacher prep programs? Everybody knows that teachers work short days for big pay, and get tenure which allows them to do whatever they want without consequences.



It's probably good that Mr. Branson saw the political problems early on and shifted his career goals. That "getting home in time to watch his kids" might be a bit problematic. If they aren't enrolled in the school he would teach at, hanging out with him for those after school hours, if they are waiting eagerly at home for him, they might find him a bit exhausted and less attentive and communicative than expected after a normal work day.
