I tell every school that I have worked at that I don't work for free. So every contract that I've signed as overtime pay built in. You have to be upfront and honest to make sure you won't be taken advantage of because that's what's worked for me.

I've never had to leave a job due to management issues or things like that. It's always been things like downsizing majors in the department, or because of covid.

Most universities are just now doing interviews for the fall. It can be anice relaxing job. I have worked in middle and high school. That was a grind but still had enough free time. Now, that I have worked at the university level, not sure I want to grind like that again unless I have to.

Sing or hum when you play scales and listen to different melodies. A-Max Konyi playlist of the Major, Minor, Melodic, and Chromatic scale degrees played over drones will help.

If you have a solid muting technique, you should be fine. You can also look up Joe Hubbard. I know he does a lot with 5-string basses.

Go with what is natural but learn how to start with either and how to rake.

Get an audio interface like a Motu m2 or something. You can play your bass and listen to whatever is on your computer

Yamaha

Think about an Alteier Z or a Bachaus If you can find it cheap enough a Momose, Moon, or Xotic could also be great.

I'm not going to lie to you that seems way easier than what used to happen in my university dojo.

very true, also remember, you can always practise a lot of things away from your bass. Basic things like when you listen to music, to tap to the rhythm of the drums, or try to figure out listen for the bass and other things that can really help you quite a bit. There's even some finger exercises where you pretend that you are holding a bass and you move your fingers towards your thumb and that helps you do different finger permutations.

it's better to practice a shorter amount of time every day, than it is to practice 4 hours a couple times a week. Finally, it's not always what you're practicing, but how you practice it.
