<p>“obnoxious know-it-all egocentrics”</p>
<p>Professors, sure. But being a high school guidance counselor is not a path that attracts a lot of egomaniacs, nor does it build/nurture them. This is a thankless field. I don’t disagree that there are plenty of GCs who don’t know what they are doing (just like plenty of the teachers and plenty of the nutritionists). But boy, it’s not a career you enter for the glory and admiration.</p>
