Greg Nichols New Job
October 17, 2022
Q: What does a typical day look like for you now that you are retired?
A: A typical day varies with my position. As an administrative assistant, I do different types of jobs on and off. It could be sports related or it could be maintenance related.
Q: How has the transition from full time work to retirement gone?
A: Being part time has given me the opportunity to enjoy my hobbies. The transition has not been difficult.
Q: Tell us about your current part-time role at Howe?
A: Like I said it could be different each day. It could be sports related or something that the administrators need help with.
Q: What drove you to take this job?
A: I don’t think anything in particular drove me into this. I was worried about being bored sometimes, but this opportunity at Howe High School has taken away any worries that I might have had.
Q: Have you worked at a different school? If so, was it the same position?
A: I have had the opportunity to work at several great schools. The position that I hold now is part time and all the other schools that I worked at were full time. I have been an administrative assistant at various schools.
Q: How was the transition from coaching to Administer Assistant?
A: With coaching, I was always a worrier. Did I prepared the team enough? Are all my players passing their classes? Do I need to go back and watch more film? By being an administrative assistant, I find out what needs to be done whether it is athletic or academic and try to get it done as quickly as possible. No more worrying.
Q: What do you see yourself in 5 years?
Q: Do you have anything else to tell us about your job here at Howe School?
A: I don’t know much else to tell you about my position at Howe, but I can tell you that working at Howe has been a very enjoyable and rewarding place for me to coach and work.
