I don't want to retire tomorrow. I enjoy what I'm doing in junior college mathematics. Today's students aren't as dedicated as they used to be. Life is more complex and there are more distractions. Nowadays a lot of my students are housewives. They don't have any goals; they just want to learn. Tri-Valley Area, Northern California, from Working, 2009
