Days in which the world won't know I exist

Aug 03, 2008 19:46

Well I just keep moving up in Wal-Mart world. Today I was just offered to run my own department by myself. The department will be produce and I can work second shift to fit around my student teaching. I really hope they do work with me on this. Because I won't be able to get there at 1 if I'm student teaching. 3 is about the time I'd have to get there. But I'd work until 11 instead of 10 and I could work the full shift on Saturday and Sunday. And I would have two days off during the weekday. So that means only three days out of my work week would have to be cut a bit.

However this means on top of working full time as a department manager, I'll be student teaching. Which means no time to do anything. But I will do it, because I may not get a teaching job here in Michigan for a while. If I can get into management, I may just stay with management and look for higher up management after I graduate this winter.

I have found I like doing what I do. I also like teaching but sometimes things happen for a reason. And I think that maybe I could be a retail store manager somewhere. I seem to be good with retail, and people love me at Wal-Mart. Even if I do have a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education, I do have a Bachelors degree. If I show that I have experience in leadership already, it could help me get my foot in the door.

Either way most of my social time will be taken up by me writing lesson plans, working, grading, sleeping, and just relaxing. I am taking my work and my student teaching very serious this time. Most if not all of my attention will be focused on those things.

Only a few more weeks to go before I dissappear for a while.
