My son’s Career Day
My son is not in school today. His junior high has set up today as “Career Day”. Since the teachers worked late last night helping families register their future sophmores for high school, I believe “Career Day” was born of a slightly different purpose but I won’t name it right now.
My son has agonized over his choice for “Career Day” for a couple of weeks. Since he’s already spent lots of time at my office with me and with his grandfather (my boss), he ruled that out. Likewise, with his uncles at our sister company. Not surprisingly, he’d rather die that go to school with his teacher father and he nearly lost his eyeballs when I suggested he spend a day with his new mommy auntie helping out with his cousin.
Last night my son had a brilliant idea. He would attend the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament in St. Paul, watch a few games and informally interview the lucky souls working the booths at the Hockey Expo next door to the arena. Guess what I said?
