Along with last weeks GREAT news concerning the job front....beep beep beep beep beep...Jordan School District to Lay, off 500 Employees: 250 Teachers, 250 Administrators. Wow, if picking the hardest subject was not making it hard enough, now I have an extra 250 experienced (in the best school district in the state mind you) teachers, plus all of those administrators who are also teachers, to compete against. Life just keeps getting better and better.
To top all of this off, I am back from a wonderful WARM vacation in St. George, ready to get back to the grindstone...yippeeeee.
Yeah, we were all just THRILLED to hear that news, weren't we? Even Lone Peak, where I'm doing my student teaching, informed us in a faculty meeting the other day that the district is going to give 3 of LP's teacher's the ax before the end of the year. We did good with our major, huh? Lots of job security... ;)
ReplyDeleteExactly. This is rediculous. I am freaking out right now. So much for saving up some money and finally starting a family right? Oh well, I keep telling myself to get off it and keep on as we are. I mean everyone else had to do their time before they could move forward, why do I think I can rush to play catch up right?
ReplyDeleteMy personal opinion (not to sway you or anything)--life is full of road blocks, and if you wait for the opportune time to have children, you might be waiting forever. Obviously you have to be smart about it and consider all aspects, but if you wait for life to be "ready" you may never get there.
