Big Interview Tomorrow

[m3talst0rm]

I haven't been on the site much lately because I have been working from 8 am to 9-10 pm all summer.  I am really excited and nervous because I am up for a job that could support my family and let me see them as well.   I have been a substitute teacher at the same high school for two years and I am finally up for a real, contract position.  All of the what if questions are running through my head (what if I screw up, what if I don't get it, etc) and I just needed a place to vent.   

I know I should get the job.  I've been there for 2 years.  I've done a good job in an field for which I had little education (I was teaching art for 2 years and I have a degree in english!). 
But....
It is kind of complicated, I am not licensed to teach.  However, I am eligible for an alternative (or conditional) licensure that would permit me to teach....It would just depend on the district if they would want to take a "risk" with me.

I usually don't care about job shit.   I guess Im so nervous because I really need this.      

I'll post about whether or not it went well.

You'll do fine. Just get a good night's sleep, eat a good breakfast and be on your way. Just take a deep breath and clear your thoughts. The Interviewer knows you'll be nervous in advance, so just answer whatever questions he throws at you. Good luck man and I know what it's like to be in your shoes when it comes to supporting a family. Jobs aren't easy to come by now day's and sounds like this one could be a great one. Good luck once again. =)

And don'f forget your handgun, you never know with these guys.

P.S. You may want to lock up your shoes.

Well I'm just a little bit drunk.

Good Luck!!!!!!

[Tynstar]

Leon you are a jack ass.

[The Metamorphosing Leon]

Thank you. *bows*

Still, you can't see your family? That sounds kinda odd, like you're locked in the school and they only let you out of your cell to teach.

[Tynstar]

It's called doing what you have to do to get a full time contract job later.

Well, thanks everyone I really appreciate the support.

I found out earlier this evening that I got the job.  I'm really excited. I will be teaching a poetry class and a couple general junior English classes.  I'm really psyched about getting paid for something I really like.

What I was saying about not seeing my family was that, to survive financially, I've needed to work two jobs.  This has limited my time with my wife and kids since I have been working more hours than your typical 9 to 5.   Of course I get to see them, but, especially these last few months, it seems that I have been leaving before my kids wake up and get home after they've gone to bed. I hate that.

I see, damn, and I was getting my crew ready to come break you out.

That's awsome...that's gotta be a huge weight off your shoulders.

I know exactly how you feel...went through the same thing just a few months ago.  I was only able to see my daughter on the weekends...and by then, I was too tired to send time with her.
