Describe something you learned in high school.
I learned that sometimes teachers get test answers wrong, and to catch those rare events was an ego trip. It’s also where they educated me, initiating me into the adult world, where I would often have wrong answers, or no answer at all. The lesson was not that being correct on question #7 was important, but that showing up for work, despite the occasional mistake, is what makes a person valuable at work. And adult life. Teachers don’t choose their profession. Their vocation calls to them. Not always. But almost every morning of the school year, they get up and go. If I can do that too, I can be seen as grown up.
