Conflicted

Right now I feel very uncertain about my future. As I mentioned before, I'm getting certified to be a teacher. I have applied to every position possible, but nobody has contacted me. So after realizing that I probably wouldn't get hired on as a teacher right away, I came up with a Plan B. And that would be to become a substitute teacher. Unfortunately, nobody has contacted me about that either. I called one school district today and they told me they had over 600 applications and they were only hiring certified teachers as subs. So it's not looking too hopeful.

Today I spent the day applying for more sub positions and also some office positions in the schools. Of course any of these jobs is pretty big pay cut, but I feel like I would be working towards my goal. So now I don't know if I should stay at my current job that I'm starting to hate or try to find something else (probably with less money).

I'm also open to working at a bakery, but I'd have to see if any are hiring. And knowing my luck, they wouldn't be.

So that's my life right now. If only the perfect job would fall out of the sky and into my lap :)
