The second part about feeling powerless was more striking as I really don't know if I can work for an institution again. While not impossible, it would be challenging to go back to someone else's goals and rules for how I should work and spend my time. Everything goes through fazes and the time may come when I'm tired of the hustle, but after six months out of the classroom I'm not lonely and I am enjoying having the power to be both the manager and the employee.
