interviews... shmiterviews...









FREEEEEEEEEEZE....


No more interviewing in Wake Countyfor a while :( Wake County just went on their "yearly" hiring freeze, seems like da ja vu of this time last year for me. Pretty sad for us new teachers here in Raleigh looking for teaching jobs.





I was thinking yesterday about my previous interview I had last week and wondering what it would be like to actually interview for any kind of other job? Really all I have experienced is teaching interviews over and over again. Its pretty ritual by now, "I love children, have a passion for children, and have always wanted to work with children ever since I was a little girl + a little bubbly personality and smiles" usually does the trick, if not, heck, apparently wasn't meant to be! Anyways last night I have NO CLUE why I was thinking about this when I was going to bed (such a ridiculous thing to think about before going to bed, however my mind is always in curious GEORGE mode...) but I was wondering what it was like in an interview for say a Dentist position or Hygenist position...





I mean, I know they don't go in there and say, "Oh yeah I have always had a passion for teeth, always wanted to work with teeth and help them grow strong and healthy." Seriously what is an interview like for those type of jobs??





Random thought of my Thursday evening.............





Back to my FREEEEEEEEEZE update I have decided to take a HIATUS from teaching! During my HIATUS I'm going to Graduate school for Elementary Education with a focus in Reading at NCSTATE! Looks like the only "non wolfpacker" of the fam is about to truly be part of the pack! I literally never thought that graduate school was for me, or that I even had the motivation to go back to school, guess I have grown up and had quite the change of perspective. This economy sucks lets just get down to how we really all feel about it... but sometimes we've all gotta get a little "positive patty" in us and think about the good. In my case, I am thankful that it has pushed me to further pursue my education and not settle for a job that I would be unhappy at AKA preeeeeeeeeeeschool. I sware the next dirty diaper I'll change is my NIECE or NEPHEWS.... you guys hear that?!





So today I am thankful for: The hiring freeze, NCSU, and only 6 more weeks of dirty diapers :)
