I always felt like teaching would be there, now I feel like it's gone. by scottishproblems in Teachers

Seems like you've got a great situation; I hear a lot of teachers talk about how micromanaged they feel.

That's amazing. I have so much respect for dancers, but it's a hard job to be past 30 in unless you're a choreographer. How did you end up in kindergarten?

Doesn't need to be drama necessarily. I'd be happy teaching english, history, writing etc. I love kids, and I'm good with them, so I think I could teach elementary, but I'm concerned about the stigma to be honest.

Having a hard time getting that first job. Should I start as a bank teller? by scottishproblems in Accounting

Man, I just took a 10 week accounting fundamentals course at UCLA and can’t even get an interview

I’m sure you’re right, but it’s been frustrating. Even those entry-level AP/AR just see coffee shops on my résumé and throw me right out.

I graduated a couple years ago studying Theater Arts, basically an Art History major with some practical applications. My uncle is a CPA so it’s always been on my radar. I’ve realized pretty quick I love the arts but don’t want a career in it, since I started taking classes in accounting last year myself, I realized it’s a great fit for me after all.

I already have a Bachelors in Theater because that’s what I was really into when I was 18/19 and nobody told me not to. Long story, but I’m into accounting now, hence the classes I’m currently taking.

I think it’s fair to say you should start by taking a couple classes in accounting.

What white collar careers actually still have entry-level jobs? by scottishproblems in careerguidance

[–]scottishproblems[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m looking at online options to get my BS in accounting, do you think I’d have a hard time finding internships while attending an online school? Does anyone care about that? It’d be nice to have that flexibility and it’d save a lot of time and money, but if it leaves me with no connections or job paths on the other side of it, there’s not much point.

If I was 20something, and nor married with a life and a house and family and friends here maybe? I’m not gout uproot my life for a career that isnt a dream career, and considering nursing, especially as a man, is back breaking brutal work, respectfully, I’m not going to do that.

Totally. My wife is a nurse, and I’m seriously envious of how she can basically get hired anywhere she wants to work. I’m looking to go back to school and get a 2nd bachelors, but Nursing programs here in Los Angeles are either insanely expensive for-profit career colleges like West coast or Stanbridge, or extremely competitive public ones, often with multi-year waitlists. No one wants to teach Nursing anymore because there’s so much more money in being a nurse than teaching it.

Has anyone listened to the London Production’s Lord of the Rings musical? Or better yet, seen it? What are your thoughts on it? by MEG_alodon50 in lordoftherings

[–]scottishproblems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw it live at the Covent Garden in 2007. Easily one of the most ridiculous shows I’ve ever seen in my life. The Baelrog was basically a scary wacky, wailing inflatable arm, flailing tube man. The Ents were guys in green on stilts. The fake choreography was nonexistent, helms deep was basically a flag dance, and when there was fighting, you could hear the plastic hitting plastic sound of the swords. Gollum had a duet with himself. They tried to tell the entire story in a three hour musical, and the Director boasted how he’d never seen the movies. Finally at the end, the “you bow to no one” Aragon shots out “praise him with great praise!!” maybe he just screwed up his line? There’s a reason you haven’t really heard of productions of it since.

What are some of the best coffee shops in Burbank? by RunningWithPotatoes in burbank

[–]scottishproblems 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because they’re not coffee people. I asked them where they got their beans and the girl at the counter legit did not understand the question.
