Left at the end of last year. Still have not found anything, in spite of a dedicated effort. Anything having to do with education that ISN'T teaching is receiving hundreds of resumes where I live. I'm happy I'm not teaching but boy, I sure do miss the paycheck. I'm seriously thinking of early retirement to access my pension, as the weeks go by and my money dwindles. Looking back it feels like I was way too arrogant about the ease at which I would stroll into offers elsewhere. And just so ya know, ageism is real and it is powerful. Be careful...

I have had a few different jobs and let me say this; every one was better in some way. Be it pay or less stress or just a better life I have seem the other side and it’s awesome. Working “like a teacher” is quite profitable even in this inflationary environment. Take a few years and som something else, they’re so desperate for teachers you can always come back.

Completely and totally miserable at my firm and just need a space to vent because my friends are tired of hearing about it. I wish the worst part about it was the amount of work, rather than the completely toxic culture, lack of appreciation, arbitrary and back/breaking deadlines, lack of mentorship/feedback/training, and the fact that the associates act like they don’t even know each other. I cry every day and constantly am made to feel stupid for not understanding the highly technical (cont.)

I read this super interesting article about how big companies like Toyota are investing in social-emotional training for their employees and seeing massive benefits. I actually think this could be a whole separate class for students of all ages. Learning about conflict resolution, growing your own self-regulation skills...it's really important.
