Did your first job live up to your expectations or were you disappointed?

My first real job after graduating from college was a five-month employment with a public school science enrichment program. I spent 4-5 days with 5th and 6th graders in a camp setting. I had about 6-10 students of my mine own that I was responsible for. The students came from all socio-economic backgrounds in southern California. The purpose of the program was to introduce young people to science through nature and the wilderness. During my stay I took groups of students into the forest on 2 hour hikes and I taught them about Ecology: how the plants and trees make their food, what the names of the native plants were, how fires change the forest, etc. I enjoyed some parts of it, but in the end I was disappointed because I could not find a way to integrade my foreign language background. And so, I went off to Korea. And here I am. Now of course you might ask, "But Kerry, why in the world did you work for a science program if your background was foreign language?" Touché! You got me on that one. I do like science, and I needed a job at the time. Since I was qualified, I wanted to try something different. At least I know that is not the kind of work that I wish to pursue. Great question, Jura! :-)
