Every year about this time, I get a survey questionnaire from middle school students who have been assigned the task of finding someone in a profession they're interested in, and quizzing them on the job conditions. Since I get the same questions all the time, I thought I'd put together a feature where I can point students.
The first set of questions was sent to me by an American 8th grader named Jesse, for a class project. There were 13 of them then, and today there are 19 of them, added by subsequent students and their teachers. Have you been quizzed by a student lately?
