Congrats! I know it's been a tough slog but you're helping.

There was a pic of a teacher kissing a pig in the paper today & I thought of you. He told his students he'd do it if they got a certain average in their math exam. Awesome!

Way to go! It is we who should buy your drinks for a while. You have a thankless job and one that most likely doesn't compensate you for all you do.

I am so proud of you!

I'll buy you the drink Lil

Well done!!

The ultimate catch-22...a crazy person can't be in your position, yet only a crazy would do it...give em hell, & keep smiling...it keeps them wondering what you're thinking...

I'll take 6.

They took it back.

I kid you not.

I signed a reappointment letter yesterday then they said they made a mistake and can not reappoint new hires yet(there are 4 of us in this situation). They said it was the same for everybody. I politely informed them that I am not "everybody" and asked them if this means I'm a free agent until they can officially re-appoint me.Bastages!!!

04-20-2006, 04:46 PM
Oh no (((Lilith))) :(

Not cool! :mad:

Lilith
04-20-2006, 04:47 PM
Yeah that was at 7:00 a.m. and the day went down hill swiftly.

04-20-2006, 04:53 PM
Oh Lilith, so sorry.

But all is not lost yet presumably. They'd have to be mad not to keep you.

And if they don't want you... then i'm sure you could teach me a thing or two!!!

Seriously... i hope it all works out for you.

BIG hug!

Lilith
04-20-2006, 04:54 PM
Oh they want me but that is not the point.

bastages is right. nothing like having the rug pulled out from under you. tell them to make sure they have their shit together next time before they go offering things that aren't up for the offering.

Thinking everything happens for a reason. I'm not sure what it is as of yet, but time has a way of revealing truths. You have heaps of love and support here and else where too I suspect. Some how I have a feeling things will work themselves out.

On the other hand, there is always the possibility of opening Ms. Lilith's School of Discipline and Reform I can see the queue now.

Well, regardless of *their* bad behavior, know that you have the love and support of a throng of Pixies.

Can you go to another school board for a job? This sounds far too shady for my liking. My dad was served well by his school board for his 40 years of teaching. This sounds sketchy, ((((((((((Lil))))))))))))).

My district requires that new teachers perform acts of magic and cunning by somehow completing all the requirements for their job and an additional "new teacher program" which has required approximately 5-10 additional hours of work a week. Much of this is in the form of meetings and classes (I attended several all day Saturday ones) with long written assignments to complete afterwards, despite having just graduated from an accredited teaching college. My district does this because my governor decided it was a good idea to hire people without an education degree to be teachers and now must require school districts to turn them into teachers. So, I did all this extra work and now my school told the 4 of us who have hustled to complete a year long program in 4 months, that because re-appointment happens in April and we are not done with the program officially til May they can not simply re-appoint us. The catch 22 is that the chick who runs the "new teacher program" says we can't pass the program til we are re-appointed. Ahhhhhhhhhh I love bureaucracy.

It's not like they don't want me, I just am super frustrated.

Did you tell them that they're all liable to end up with piles of Pixie poop on them? Grrrr. I hate government.

Let's see, your governor...isn't he closely related to the infamous Global Village Idiot somehow? Must be a family thing...

It sounds like just another case of a quarter good idea turning into a total nightmare.

The fact that real people get caught up in it is irrelevant.

Welcome to the wide world of theory.

Did you know that someone with their head in a blast furnace and their feet in a bucket of liquid nitrogen was, on the average, pretty OK?

(((Lil))) I'm sure after a mudslide or twelve your troubles will seem to diminish for a moment.... I'll share them with you.... and we can plan the "powers that be" demise together :)

Don't let the bastards get you down...you WILL succeed. Persistence is most of the fight.

Keep smiling and that winning attitude...you WILL get over.

In the meantime, have another mudslide. I will take a Vodka martini, straight up, with a twist.

If I read this right, it looks like you're unemployed until May '07.

Will they still take you as a casual?

Lilith
04-26-2006, 06:55 PM
I will finish the first year teaching program this May actually. I am doing all the requirements as a whole year teacher despite only working in this position since February. They will sign me as soon as they can. I am hearing they are very eager to keep me employed. It was just the perfect topping to a rough week.
