My school uses me for nothing but testing. Pretty sure I want to go back to public libraries. I am unable to get any work done at my school. I cry every day. I dread going in to work. I hate my supervisor. Why is it admin thinks I have nothing to do???

None of them have actually had to try and do what we do. They don't understand all that goes into our jobs and often we get pulled for another use. You are not the only one seeing that more and more administrators are portraying more often that school libraries are unimportant. Hang in there and advocate for yourself. It's harder at the high school level to get kids interested in the library, so it's easy for admin to pull you for other things.

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can. For example, my firm will favor a former prosecutor who has seen the courtroom a lot but has no civil litigation experience (not even a depo) over a seasoned associate who has only second chaired cases with a partner but hasn’t tried a case. Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.
