I am actually an undergraduate,and I am just curious about your choices.I want to continue my studys.Modern corporations are frightening and precarious,and I am kind of trying to escape from the idea of working for a firm.
I have long tended to remain in college after all my graduations as a teacher.After all,working in campus is much less complicated than companies;what you have to do mostly is to contact with students.
what do you think?

There are quite some questions raised so I will have to respond it one by one.
First, to further study or not. I think it by itself is the purpose and you do not and should not do it because you don't want to get a job. Further study means you have to use a few years more on studying and therefore is going to have a job some years later and by then, you lack the experience other your undergraduate classmates (which by that time are graduates already) will have. Is it the study more important or the working experience more important is not well known. Therefore, only go for furthering your study if you really think you want to study more.
Second, corporations are not that unstable that you may have heard. There are still many corporations that are doing just fine and that they do treasure their employees. In fact more and more corporations are putting loyalty above others because training a people to take the job is more costly then maintaining one. So, in conclusion, don't get too pessimistic.
Third, being a teacher is not quite an easy task. My brother is a teacher and he is dealing with students only. However, almost all students are different and that he is so angry all the times when the students are not behaving good. On the contrary, I work in office and other than my colleagues, I seldom have to deal with other people. So, don't take it lightly to choose teacher as your job.

Yeah,actually,I still dream of going to work in uniform and appreciate the feeling of being a white collar or even,a golden collar:P
But definitely,I will pursue further education in the first place.i love the feelong of acquiring knowledge,pondering over problems,and the process the exploration.
