In tears on my birthday
I am getting SO DONE with my school division.
At the end of summer I was told by the superintendent in charge of band teachers that if a long temporary contract came up I would be considered for it.
Now, I know that verbal agreements mean shit in this world, but I thought that maybe they'd come through for me.
Yeah. Not only did that NOT HAPPEN, but I was passed over TWICE. Both until the end of December. My contract ends on the 10th of November.
It's my birthday and I'm in fucking tears. But I have to suck them up and put a smile on my face because I'm at opening institute and I have to look fucking happy to be here.
I don't know how much more I can take. It'll be four years subbing for this division come December and I'm no further ahead. What more can I do? I'm at the point where I'll prostrate myself on the floor for a job if I must.
I'm trying to remain positive, but this just fucking sucks.
