My future career.

I'm going back to school in a bit and I'm thinking and wondering about what new career to get into.  I like helping people learn and was thinking about being a teacher.  Then I thought about what would happen with a smart ass kid.  I would so get fired, I would be a smart ass right back and show them how to do it right.  I do believe that most parents would have a problem with that.

After my really bad day yesterday I was relaxing and keeping away from the kids by matching socks.  Then it hit me, I should design baby socks.  Think about it; you get a basic sock design and put a light green heart on it, just a little down from the top.  That's it.  If that design didn't sell that well you just change the heart to a cute little critter or put a stripe on it.  That was the only difference in these socks.  I can do that.  Hell, there are animals in zoos that could it.

I know you're thinking that this is a lame career.  I beg to differ.  What will give a person the feelings of love, compassion, and protection?  A child.  Wait a minute, babies are noisy, stinky, and expensive.  Baby socks aren't.  All of the good without any of the bad.

Reality again, these sock companies have designers again and they probably have some weird degree like Medieval English Literature.  I'm not going to get the dream job that I want to have.  So I have a small basket of unmatched socks, what to do with them.

Hello, sock monkey project.  Maybe there is another project to do with socks but are they as cute?  I don't think so.  What my future career will be I can't say.  But really, is there anything more indicative of innocence besides baby socks?
