Live and learn... crash and burn.

I applied for a 2nd grade position last Monday at the school I did my student teaching at. That's supposed to give you a leg up right? I waited all week, each day losing a little more hope that I didn't get a call for an interview. Tonight I got an email saying that the position was filled. I didn't even get an interview. I'm stuck guessing and

I just want to let you know that you're not alone.
*hugs tightly*
If you've eread my posts you might know that i'm in a similar situation as you, and althoguh I don't know exactly what you're feeling right now, I can sympathise with the feelings of frustration, inadequacy, and general gloom.

You have to beleive in your self, because you will one day find someone who also does.

This is far easier said than done, and I often find myself asking "ok, When will this happen then?"

The answer? I don't know. I wish I did. I wish I could fix it for both of us to get a dream job in a dream school.

I don't want to repeat what others have probably told you many times, there's lots of advice I could be giving you, but if you're like me, you'll have heard it all.

I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone. And that if you want to talk, about anything, you know where I am. If not, that's ok too :)

*hugs tightly again*

Take care of yourself.

Awe, poor thing. *hugs* I can totally sympathize with not knowing when the jobs are going to flow in. My fiance works in contruction so we never really know what his pay checks are going to look like. At least with him he usually has a few hours of work each day.

It will happen, that much I know. Just stay strong. *hugs*

don't loose hope

I'm sorry you didn't get the position you wanted. If teaching where you are is like teaching here, elementary positions are exceedingly hard to come by. Getting hired is who you know, not how good you are. Although subbing sucks (I put that as the job I'd be assigned in hell), hang in there. Things happen for a reason. You will find a job, one that is what you want and where you will be happy. Good luck.
