Even Jesus was a carpenter eh?
Don't get me wrong, I love history and really don't want to do anything else career wise (unless it involves producing music, for Metal Blade preferably) I originally went into it hell bent on teaching government classes, but for some reason doubt has entered my mind as to wether or not I'd be a good teacher, even though I am going to arguably the best teaching school in the country. Research to me really is a bore, I'm more attracted to the impact of history on how it shaps today and the great stories history tells. Some profs have recommended being a ____ Historian...like Political Historian, Music Historian, etc. It is a sad world when employers don't care about specialization, then again they are probably desperate for educated employees.
