I assume they will not uncover your seedy past and ruin your job opportunities, because that was in a past life when you were a Hun and sacked Rome. I bet you don't remember that, but my sister said it happened. Ah, sis. Seriously, you are perfect for that type of work, stay with it. Dad Hey Sam, Congrats on the job.

Maybe this will inspire you to go ahead with your physics teacher dream! Its certainly fun and exciting work, helping teach science in a way that makes people excited about finding things out, rather than bored because they know you are eventually going to bring up math. ;) If you are into physics, and more importantly, how to think about science in a way that keeps it fresh and facinating, I highly recommend reading books by Richard P. Fenyman, such as "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Fenyman" which is a collection of his writings. He was a nobel prize winning physicist, but some of his biggest contributions to science wasn't his discoveries, but the sense of amazement and childlike wonder he saw in it all. He is an amazingly interesting and inspiring man to read about. Thanks for the congrats. Maybe this will inspire you to go ahead with your physics teacher dream!

It sounds like a true dream job! It's been a long time backup-plan/dream of mine to try a stunt as a physics teacher to try to get students encouraged to discover the way science can help explain the world around us :-) Congratulations indeed!
