Congarats to you!

Thank you for your service in the Air Force.

Negotiate your salary well.

Thanks Raider and your most welcome. Hell, I'd still be in the AF if they'd let me but I'm too old for that kind of stuff.

you teachers are a rare breed... I cant stand my own kids most of the time, I wouldnt be able to tolerate anyone elses!

Oh, my kids are in the late 20's to mid 30's

Thanks... yea other people kids are easier than my own too!

I want competition to move out not in!

You need to go back to Pre-school and learn how to share Felix

Niiiiiiiice! I like those heavy plain bands, and thats a good one!

Thanks Mud Puppy

congrats on the gold
I found the same captain Morgan here in Florida.

I have been talking about the same thing retiring. We meet with a business broker last week for the second time. He wants to give my business away so I can retire.

Thanks Sexton

Nice heavy Gold!! Congrads!!

Thanks

Uhm... Yeah, you're going to probably make the cut, and then get the job, too. If you don't want it, best thing to do is to retract your application, and simply tell them that.

I've done that TWICE in my career. Best decisions I ever made. Totally pissed off one recruiter who was yelling at me at the end of the phone call, telling me all kinds of things about my personality traits and character. Something just didn't feel right about the job, so I bailed before the last interview with the CEO of the small company. Less than a year later, my career took off in my current job. THAT felt right.

Go with your gut, man. If you're retired, picking up a science teaching job is not a "Cake-walk" position. As a former school teacher, I can tell you the three jobs in the school that I wouldn't want are #1 Principal. #2 Science Teacher. and #3 English Teacher.

The class sizes make it darn near impossible to have a life after any quiz/test/exam. You'll spend your whole freaking life grading papers, and planning lessons. Plus, as a science teacher, you'll deal a LOT with parents who complain their child (who isn't paying attention or studying) isn't doing "well" in your class.

Best comment I ever made to an irate parent on the phone when she called to ask why "is my child making a C in your class!" I responded, "Because I was generous."

It wasn't a joke, it was just a plain answer. There was a brief pause and then a totally different mom on the other end of the phone. One who was REALLY nice after that. LOL

Unless you really need that crappy paycheck, stick with substituting.



Cheers!
