this year's options for Career Day presentations at my child's high school
the parantheticals are referencing teacher names to tell which room to go to for that presentation – left in a couple so you could appreciate the very appropriate location for the Law Enforcement presentation
these options leave a lot to be desired and make me wonder how the fuck they recruit for them, because it doesn't seem like there's much effort to get a wide breadth of interests and options.
I asked my kid for what the options actually were when he told me how bummed out he was by them
once I saw them, I was similarly bummed. how terribly uninspiring.
we live near-ish to several nationally-respected universities, they could have had speakers about so much more interesting shit
guaranteed that the people who facilitate this thing every year are barely paid enough to give a fuck, I don't hate them for not hunting down people from outside our county to inspire our kids. I hate capitalism for making the educational system be set up in such a way that the person in charge of this shit just takes whatever is easiest instead of trying to offer a range of options.
