in another way though. I know I haven't posted on here much, so this
may get long.
During my years of IF, I went through college to get my BA in
Education. I graduated August 06...got pg with the twins Dec. 06. So
4 years of college, 4 years of IF. The job field around here isn't
all that great and there are several colleges that have ECE (Early
Childhoon Education) as a major. I have been subbing within our
school district since graduating.
This past winter, I got the great op****tunity to do a long-term
position tutoring students for the state achievement test. I got to
work in two schools for 3 months. I loved every moment of it, and
worked hard at it. I knew I had to do well in order to be considered
for a full-time job next year.
It wasn't looking good for a job since there were not any posted
during the spring. I worked hard on my resume (though stupid me
forgot to put my new phone number down and they had to call the sub
office to get my new number). I filled and re-filled my application
out so I knew it was correct. I turned it on Monday of last week.
When I went in, the old HR (retiring) said something on the lines of
he was expecting this. I thought that was good. I was then informed
that there were tutoring positions open. This is what I have been
looking for since they hire subs for those jobs and tutors for
teaching positions. So I typed out my letter of intent, and took it
over to HR on Wed.
On Thursday morning I got a phone call for an interview. Unfortunetly
it was for Special Education which I am not certified to teach.
However, I thought it was good that I was considered for an actual
teaching position, and thought that I would likely get to interview
for the tutoring position. Well, I was wrong. I called today and
they already hired for them. Not even a consideration.
I am soooo upset and all I can think about is my struggle with having
the twins and now struggling to get my career going. I feel so much
of the same emotions. Denial, kicked in the face, failed. Feeling
like I have a good shot then denied. Struck down. I don't want to
struggle with this like I had to with the girls. I don't think I
could handle another battle that I have just gotten through a year
ago. I feel like there is nothing I can do either. I emailed the HR
director since when I call I always end up talking to the secretary.
I wanted to make sure that I didn't screw up on something with my
resume/application. I also thanked for the consideration for the
other job and hopes to hear from her on a tutoring position.
I just want an upbeat, happy summer. Every year it is blah and
depressing for one reason or another. No wonder I cannot wait for it
to be over.
Ok, thanks for letting me vent.
On another note, the girls are 10 months old now! They are doing
great though I They will be starting Early Intervention b/c of gross
motor skills. They do not try to sit themselves up if laying down,
they won't hold their bottle, and they don't try to get up on their
hands and knees. Besides this they are great!
