This week I had the opportunity to speak at the summer conference of the North Carolina Agriculture Teachers Association. Since I had taught many of the teachers it was like Brer Rabbit being thrown into the brier patch. I enjoyed the occasion but wish it had been in person instead of via Zoom. However, I think we have turned the pandemic corner and will soon be meeting live again. I spoke about the importance of balancing work and family and provided 13 specific suggestions to the teachers.
