Best of luck over the next few months.

Sorry to hear that, Maksim ... but you and I both know, we never know what the future holds. In the long run, it will probably work out for the best...
Again, best of luck... ? ?
We'll be flying CAS for ya'! ? ?

Hi Guys,
I do have plans. I'm going to go out and apply for positions in other areas and move to an apartment in the area I get hired in.
Some good news though is that I have finally received transcripts from previous schooling and that the school district will have to bump me up to the second-highest pay grade and give me back pay. That's pleasurable news. It's also worth a good lump of change. Of course, it only lasts until the end of this school year when I have to go looking again.
I'm very nervous about looking because the market is tight right now; more teachers than jobs. At least I'm no longer in the catch-22 of needing experience to get a job and needing a job to get experience.
Diana thinks there's a better place for me elsewhere. I'm trying to keep my spirits up as well. If only teaching was more about children and not adminsitration and cruddy politics.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Bummer dude, hopefully it has been a valuable learning experience you will be able to take with you in the future.
I have great admiration for teachers, you have to deal with dozens of kids many of whom probably have issues which disrupt the class. I counsel people who are suicidal or have other serious issues, but at least it is one on one rather than having to deal with multiple people!

Hi Markco,

The more I think about it, the better it probably is. I can use a fresh start and I've been toiling away for this school district far too long for the scant appreciation that has been shown me. I am a good teacher.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

"Scant"... that's an understatement judging from all you've had to go through.
I am a good teacher.

That's why I feel sorry for the children. They'll get some yes-man (or woman) of the principal.

Bad luck on the current situation and good luck for the future job hunt.
My wife is also a teacher and she always says the job would be perfect 'cept for the petty policking.

I put out my first batch of job applications yesterday and looked into unemployment since the market is in a bad place.
Shalom,

Hi Guys,
I'm just getting by. the good news is that noone else seems to understand it. My colleagues think that it's a crock.
Robla district seems to be looking for people. I'm going to try and follow that lead after school today.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
