Long term teacher, including sub. I enjoyed being a sub. Like any job you have down days and up days.For me, many more up days.
The big advantage is you get to try on different grades and subjects. You get to see classroom set up and curriculum and sometimes you get to help somebody.
Teaching is a challenging enterprise Subbing tests the waters and helps you define what suits or doesn't suit you.
I wish you the best of luck in whatever you do. :)

@ana regarding your question about whether to be a substitute teacher, a memory popped in my head of Raoul Dahl’s (the celebrated children's author’s) experience in his autobiography, entitled, “Boy”.
onthe weekends the kidsgot a substitute teacher, and she simply regaled them with stories she told, I think mostly about mythology. It’s pretty much what he remembered as the brightest moments and the greatest lessons he got while at this prestigious boys boarding school.
I didn't know where to post this. My daughter in Tucson was watching a train going North. She said it was carrying military stuff, including tanks. Where could they be going? Canada? Mexico? I told her maybe they had to go North before turning South. It's scary. trump has extended an Army base on the South border to 174 miles.
