Job Interview

Yesterday morning I got a call from a number I didn't recognize. I let it go to voicemail and assumed it was class being cancelled. I checked the voicemail and it was a lady calling me for a job interview in Kouts. I called her back and after playing phone tag, we discussed setting up an interview for this morning. At the end, she asked me to bring a copy of my license. I said ok and then she said she meant my teaching license. My stomach dropped as I explained I didn't have a teacher's license and to be hired as a teacher, I would have to do as such with an emergency permit sponsored by my counselor (who gave me her full blessing to do such) and the place that wants to hire me. She seemed confused and said she wasn't sure if she was allowed to do that. She then suggested I come in for the interview and then they could take it from there. I was disappointed as, at first, I thought I would have whatever job was offered nailed. I decided to go as it would be good experience for teaching job interviews and you never know what could come of the interview.

 

I went to class at 3 and at 3:15 I got a call saying it was cancelled. I drove home and felt worthless for the rest of the day. I watched the Cubs game and called Rach. I also "thought" I had beaten GTA IV, but I have one more mission that I didn't think I had. I went to be early and woke up at 6:30 and went to the interview. It went well, possibly very well. She asked me to call DOE and see what I have to do to get an emergency permit. I know what I have to do. I have to get CPR training, pass my Praxis, and get the sponsorship of both my school and job. Unfortunately, the soonest I can get my Praxis is June 17^th. That shouldn't be a huge problem as the job is for the fall. The job I am in the running for is very very intensive and is basically a LOT of work. It is from 7-3:30 but probably will take longer than that on a daily basis to do.
