I always tell my husband who thinks I have horrible students that I do not rant about the lovely families that support their children. I do not rant about how wonderful most of my students are. I am very thankful (other thread) that 99% of my students are wonderful for teenagers that is :D. The phone thing was minor and taken care of. I bet the parent was a bit shocked when I answered the phone. She apologized and hopefully will have a long talk with her daughter. Let me put it this way if you only talked about your children when they were sick or in their terrible 2s they would sound very bad. The big picture is the job is more rewarding than a problem. Something like being a mom. Just I have had several hundred “children”. I cry at graduations if you need a perspective.
We don’t do soccer, but have done Pop Warner football (yes I’m naming names!) and they’ve been disorganized as well. It usually takes the form of game day changes (time/location) at the last minute. When you have to be on the field 90 minutes before an 8 am game and the filed is 45 minutes away, you get the picture.
My video production internship at my church ended three months ago, and I’m in the middle of the hunt for my first real job. It took me a while to get through school, so I’m a few years older than most in my position. Today I visited my old boss at the church, where they were able to find an experienced video professional to set up a real studio instead of the closet operation I was running. Everything looks awesome and seems to be going swimmingly without me. A couple other interns in other departments got hired on, but the offer was never made to me. My job hunt is going well–slowly, but well. But today, a couple guys from film school walked into the bagel shop where I’m working part time. I know they’re busy freelancers who’ve had work for a while. I had to find something else to do while a coworker took their order so they wouldn’t see me.
Tomorrow I’ll probably be okay. I have lots of friends IRL and at GWC to talk to. But today I really want a real frakkin’ job real bad.
(P.S. The guy I loaned my Firefly DVDs to just got a promotion, so he’ll be traveling all the time, and I don’t know when I’ll get to see him to get the things back. I should have listened to my hunch when he asked to borrow them in the first place.)
This may not help you now but I will try anyway. I had a horrible job and tried to get a different one. It was in a small town so I could get the dirt on who got the job instead of me. I had a better education, more experience, and could not for the life of me understand why they got the job over me. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong. I found out that things like one was married to a judge well you get the idea. When I finally got a better job it was the best of the choices. I was so happy with it and I realized that if I was given any one of the others I would not have the wonderful position. So this is my best pep talk and I hope it helped a bit and just keep trying.
Oh, I forgot the rule I must bitch about something. The air conditioning at my school bit the dust. The big compressor took out a wall when a part flew off. Florida heat does not do well without air conditioning.
Dentist. Filling. Numbness. 'Nuff said.
Frakkin stomach flu.
