Why did the teacher switch careers to IT?

She always loved being the monitor.

Did You Know?

The joke plays on "monitor" — a teacher watches over students in class, while in IT, a monitor is the screen you stare at all day. The word actually comes from the Latin "monere," meaning to warn or advise, which fits both jobs perfectly. Teacher-to-tech career switches are common too, since classroom management skills transfer well to project coordination roles.
