I was immediately intrigued.

"I could do that" I thought.

But then my mind started going over different scenarios of how stress might factor into that job.

Oh man oh man.... doesn't sound so good anymore, does it?

I may have to get a night job stripping or something (LOL - you've heard of teachers who do that right?)...

No, but really, I'd have to consider my financial situation, and mental situation,  before delving into a career as thankless as a school counselor.
