Used to...

When you're used to teaching
A desk job's uninviting
When you're used to speaking
A computer's not exciting
When you're used to teenagers
Adults seem quite the bore
When you're used to insanity
Silence is a chore
When you're used to one thing
Another's difficult to try
When you're trying to make money
You really don't ask why...

All I can say is it's so sad. You seemed like an amazing teacher. Unfortunately teaching doesn't pay much. I'll venture to guess that you miss making a difference in a teens life. I hope this change isn't permanent and one day you'll be back at home in the classroom.

That's very understandable. Although you very well might find yourself behind the teacher's desk again sometime in the future, I do hope you can find some sort of fulfillment in your current job. At least you are working for noble reasons....
