Career Options?

Thank you for your reply. Actually, until I kept hearing people tell me not to do it I had already been set on becoming a teacher in special education. Everyone I talk to says they could not do it but I love it! Yes, the common core area can be frustrating... I find students bored, acting out, and just not interested at times. I love what I do but sometimes I feel like the expectations to keep these kids sitting is ridiculous. I do not mind the lesson planning and hours of effort. I actually am looking forward to spending countless hours decorating my first classroom. If it were up to me I would be planning both textbook and hands-on activities. I hear I will be told how to teach and that it's not how I am picturing it... just from subbing I already can see how scripted the textbooks are and the problems, I may be in for. I honestly don't mind it right now I am just worried about the long run and if eventually, it will make me miserable like my coworkers are. I think the problem with the business degree is really down to me... I have no idea what to do with it? Like how to get into a field? and what is out there? There are so many areas to chose from... I do not know how to get my foot in the door. I think maybe interning?
