I hate...

job hunting. I guess that is why I applied to 3 school districts back in December. Apparently that wasn't to my advantage.

2 of them contacted me in January. Both of the people who contacted me from those districts no longer work in their positions.

And the people who have replaced them apparently don't know how to answer their phones or return messages.

So now I am trying to decide if I should just look elsewhere (outside of education). Grrrrr. How come everyone says that schools are desperate for teachers and I am a teacher desperate for a school?

Thanks for listening. I will go fill out another application now.

Stink-o! I'm sorry. I feel like you can only get a (good)job as a teacher when all the stars line up perfectly. Down with Canada!
