The last five years have been a complete waste of time

No one needs me.

Its August, no schools have called - no second interviews, no nothing.

Though I did learn that while they had my first HR interview on record Baltimore County Public Schools LOST my application and resume

Anne Arundel - the people that loved me has been a dead end, Howard county has no openings in Social Studies. Baltimore City is not accepting applications for Social Studies teachers. The same goes for most of the Eastern shore counties.

I re applied in Anne Arundel and Montgomery just now, I am sure nothing will come from it.

Carrol has been equally fruitless. Called around to all the privae schools i could think of, nothing there either.

I thought I worked hard, but apparently I did not. I thought that teaching would be a career that, at least, would garauntee me employment - I guess I was wrong.

I feel utterly useless right now and I don't know what I am going to do. I have begun to apply for other work - office stuff. But all I ask is that my job interest me in at least SOME way. I have applied at all the local papers, et al - I have heard nothing, and i doubt I will hear anything at all.

All my friends, they are moving on, have good jobs getting on with thier lives and here I am. I thought I worked hard - but apparently not hard enough. I was stupid to follow my heart and go after this useless fucking career. Teachers are constantly shit upon by every facet of society, the pay is lousy, there is no respect and while they say they need teachers they make it such a fucking pain to become one.

Jen, God bless her, has been doing her best to cheer me up and supporting me but I swear if I'm still waiting tables in September I don't know what I am going to do - I'll be a wreck.

I have applied all over the place, worked the phones like a closer - but its all for nothing.

5 years of college, plus the desire to teach since Middle School - so far has equalled jack shit.

I'm worthless
