I have a great part time job. One day a week, on Fridays, I work as the head computer technician and assistant computer teacher at a local private elementary/middle school. I also work there full time during the summers as the head (well, only really) computer specialist.
Basically, I maintain a labful of 20+ Macs and another 20+ classroom computers, plus the servers, switches, etc, while also helping with the older students classes. The main teacher isn't too technically minded, leaving me to teach the fun stuff like Macromedia Flash, digital movie making using iMovie, and some 3D animation with Blender.
Originally I entered the job just for some extra easy money, but I've fallen so in love with working with the children, that I've decided to pursue a teaching career instead of one in research. Just seeing the similes on children's faces, and seeing how I'm a positive influence on their lives, brings me a sense of fulfillment I've never found anywhere else.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
