In middle school I was failing science. My teacher called a one on one meeting with my parents to discuss this. I was present in the meeting and though they didn't realize it, I overheard my teacher telling my parents that they shouldn't worry about me. She said, "Steven may never be a scholar, but he will certainly be a successful salesman, he can talk his way in and out of anything."

-true enough.
