Licensed to …. Corrupt Minds!
I have been asked several times what my profession is and instead of saying … am a licensed elementary school teacher, I’d end up saying, “I am licensed to corrupt minds”. So I have the license card to prove it but none of the experience that’s suppose to go with it.
I had this conversation with the Dean of Commerce back in my 3rd year in college … I was typing out some documents for her in the office and she was very busy with the upcoming review for the licensure exams when I asked ..
Moi: Ma’am Rose, how does your PRC ID look like?
So the dean took her wallet from her bag and showed me her ID … it says “Certified Public Accountant”
Dean: When you pass the board exams soon your ID would have “Professional Teacher” on it.
I made a face which made her laugh and asked why, I said … mine would sound so ordinary so plain while hers well it was classy at least I thought so when I was 18.
So 3 years ago I took the exams and passed got my ID and looked at my face staring back at with the inscription beneath, Professional Teacher; since I still think it’s pretty ordinary when anyone ask what am licensed to do … I’d always say … I’m Licensed to Corrupt Minds.
There sounds better. Nyahahahaaahaha.
