I've been job hunting since the middle of April when I was told by the principal at my school they no longer needed two Special Education teachers. This process - a full time job looking for a full time job - is at the very least arduous, and is beginning to piss me off.
-
I WANT a job, but I can't seem to find one. Can you believe it? A male that teaches Special Education working almost exclusively with children that have behavior problems or Autism, and he can't find a job. I'm still stunned over this.
-
In my part of the country, school starts in less than a month. The first week of August, things start moving around here as kids start going back to school, teachers gear up for another 190+ days of trying to get kids to stop touching each other, and parents tear up with relief as their little hellions become someone elses problem for 7 hours a day.
-
And here I am, with a Master's degree in Education, and I may have to start waiting tables to make ends meet. I can't go out of state until I'm certified in THIS state, so here I am. Stuck. All this education that I HAVE to have, $30,000 in debt, and no job.
-
They tell me that I'd have a MUCH better chance of finding employment if I were to coach something athletic.
-
Me? Coach? Honey...they gays don't catch. But I suppose I can carry water bottles and towels and stand there and clap my hands. Oh, OH! I could be a cheerleading coach...
-
Yeah...that'll happen.

Have a good day, everyone.
Now say the players were to shower after their practice. Would that be so bad (disclaimer: assuming no contact, students are all 18+, yadda yadda).
Yes, assuming they were. However, this would be middle school/high school. So, not so much. I don't want to be the creepy guy that's always folding the towels, even if they don't need it.
