[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 514472, member: 12570"] My daughter had just graduated with her 4 yr degree in Biology and was visiting family in NC and went to a job fair out of curiosity and ended up being hired as a HS science teacher at a charter school. NC does not require the certificate upon hire but she has either 3 or 5 yrs (I forget which) to get her certificate. Teaching was the furthest thing from her mind but she absolutely loves it. Keep your options open. It would be hard to preload and substitute teach as most schools are in session at 8am or earlier and you wouldn't normally get the call to substitute teach until 6am or so unless they call you ahead of time for a planned absence or maternity leave. It is good that you are asking for advice but it will ultimately be your decision to make. You may be surprised to learn that there are many drivers who have either their 2 or 4 yr degrees and have chosen for whatever reason to work at UPS. In my case, I was unable to find suitable work in my career field (business) that even came close to what I am making now or offered a benefit and pension package anywhere near what I enjoy now.
