What. A. Day.
First, let me set up abbreviations for the school districts.
South Brunswick = SB (the school I worked at last year)
North Brunswick = NB
East Brunswick = EB
Got it?
Okay, so it all started with a voicemail from my principal from SB. He knows I'm still waiting for an answer from my interview with NB, but he's kinda needing an answer for HIM about if I'm committing to the kindergarten position for the first half of this year.
Fuuuuuuck.
So I tried to get a hold of the people from NB to see if they made a decision yet, but the school doesn't have power because of construction, so I had to call the board office. I told them my situation, and they said they would try to get a hold of the principal and get back to me. I didn't hear from them. I finally left a message on the SB principal saying that I still don't know.
I go home stressed to the max when I get a call from the human resources person from EB. I've interviewed for them twice, but this person LOVES me and told me that. She has a couple of openings they need to interview for on Monday - and they're only interviewing like 4 people, me being one of them. She really likes me, but the principals I've interviewed with needed certain personalities to go with the other teachers. I explained EVERYTHING to her. By the time Monday came, I would be going through new teacher training at SB OR already have a permanent job in NB. She wants to keep in touch though because of mid-year maternity leaves.
I was in the middle of bitching to Ed about all this when my principal from SB beeps in. I told him about EB. He's willing to let me go on the interview and if I get it, scramble to fill my position. He's being SUPER nice about all of this, but he knows I have a good chance of getting screwed mid-year if I work for him.
So I called EB back. I have an interview with two principals on Monday since new teacher training that day is kinda optional, and I'll know by that night if I got either job. She also has a middle school math position interview waiting in the wings if these don't work out (I freakin' LOVE her).
So tomorrow, I'll find out about NB and let SB know. If I didn't get it, I'll find out by Monday night if I'm working in SB or EB.
*head spinning*
Yeah, I'm drinking a beer right now.
If you made it through this post and understood it, have a beer yourself.
