    Default I got a job!

    Well, I still have to formally accept it, but it has been offered to me and I can't see any reason I'd turn it down.

    It's only a .2 teaching position, which means I would be teaching a single class every day. But, I have been told I would also get priority to sub in the building. Another upside is I won't have a completely overwhelmed first year teaching; pretty much every new teacher I know has said it's hell. I'll still have all the usual problems, but I'll have much more time to deal with them and much less work to grade.

    Oh yea, and I'll have more time for razors, and I won't have to give up being a mod (which I probably will when I first start teaching full time).

    The main downside is that a buddy of mine also interviewed for the job, and he has a wife and kid, so I know he could have used the work.

    Please excuse me for signing this post.

    Dylan,

    That's amazing! Congrats. That's your foot in the door....and it's only going to get better.

    I started with a .5, and it took another year and a whole tonne of school involvement, but eventually I ended up at 1.0

    Good for you man!

    Congrats.. Just remember, children can smell your fear. If you show any weakness they will charge you. Just play dead.

    ...Or was that bears? I am not a clever man.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
