AITAH for telling my friend she needs to become a teacher for more benefits and insurance ?
My friend is a bartender but needs insurance desperately . She hasn’t been the dentist in years and she’s been complaining about her teeth being in pain the past couple weeks she said she can barely sleep because she has no insurance . I told her “ sometimes you can’t do what you’re passionate about. That’s not how life works . You have to do what pays the bills and gives you benefits. Plus you don’t have to do it forever . It can be temporarily until you are able to go the dentist and doctor.”
Teachers get great benefits and the entire summer off . Or she can temporarily join the army which has amazing benefits she will even be able to go back to school if she wants
She was mad when I suggested it she told me that she hates kids and will never be a teacher . She was like “ I love bartending . Teachers pay is crap and being with kids is my worst nightmare.”
