HELL YES!! I'd do it in a heartbeat.
Only difference is, it would have to be a damn good job to pay my school loans in a year.

It's much easier for men to get teaching jobs than women...especially in elementary and middle school. Men are not very common in those ages. It's mostly women. If a man applies he almost always gets the job.

That's because the likelihood of men sleeping with their students is slightly less.

if you'd asked me 2 years ago before I had a daughter the answer would have been "yes." Now that I have her it would kill me to miss a year of her growing up.

So... we'll be seeing you on the next season of Ice Road Trucker? Or maybe Deadliest Catch?

If I were single and didn't own a house, yes - I could do it, for the right pay.

I understand Toronto strippers make excellent money. And moving away for only a year? No problem. Go for it if it's something you like and the pay is good.
