Maybe all Harry needs (or wants!) is a nonprestigious job. He spent
the last 5 years dealing with fame and its downfalls. A teaching job
sounds perfect for him-he apparently does love to teach and is good
at it (considering his progress with Neville!). He is always
complaining about how he didn't ask to be famous. Just a thought.
