My Fake Part-Time Job
So this week it has been back to High School Teaching... A pretty relaxed week considering I don't start back to the University until next week. A nice part-time week, or sort of...
As it is semester time, I have been considering my options for this summer and next year... To teach or not to teach? Now that I have done my time working my way up the pay scale and ladder in the public school system- it is difficult to leave the promise of a good part-time salary next year.
What other kind of jobs are out there?
Ummm, one problem. I don't have time to look. Yesterday I worked at my part-time job from 7 until 4:30 with only a few short breaks. Today, I would really like to take a nap this afternoon since the Cats were crazy all over the bed last night. But, ummm, I have papers to grade, a test to write, and classes to plan for. I will work hard on it today, so that I may have a free evening. So that for ONCE this semester I can say to husband, "I don't have anything to do tonight- what should we do?"
Last night husband volunteered to make me a spread sheet (one of his favorite activities) of how many hours I work now, how much I make, how many hours I might need to work next year to make the same amount, etc. Unhappily I realized that my daily work just for high school was near 7.5 hours a day.
Oh good, so I could really be working full time at any other job?
Super DE Duper...I LOVE my fake part-time job.
