In which PG is not a good role-model

Remember a few days ago when I told everyone how cool you would be if you mentored a Philly kid?

Scratch that.

I’m not cool enough, apparently.

Here’s what I was told:

“We would also love to work with you as a mentor; however, we traditionally work with mentors who are 26 years or older and/or who have at least two years of post-bac, full-time professional experience.

*Sob.

Okay, I get the policy. Naturally one wants young kids to be working with wizened, experienced mentors.

But why are my two years of part-time random jobs TEACHING high school kids not good enough?

I guess I’m just a failure.

But that doesn’t mean you all shouldn’t become mentors! Sign up! They especially are looking for male mentors…..

I’ll just (*sob) live vicariously through you.
