interview changed for Tuesday

March 4th, 2006 at 08:59 pm

The person who is going to interview me is not available on Monday at 4pm, so they rescheduled it for Tuesday...
I{m really getting excited about this!!
Can you imagine?? Even if I don't have DD at the same school, I could go home after work and help her with homework, play a while and then go to the other school for my lessons (I need the money!)

I GOT AN INTERVIEW!!!

March 3rd, 2006 at 06:31 pm

They (the school) wrote almost immediately!!!
they want to interview me on MOnday!!! (i'm trying to change the time from 4:30 to 4:00, though, to make sure I arrive on time at the other school for my English lessons!)

::HAPPY DANCE::

Application sent...back to waiting!

March 3rd, 2006 at 04:30 pm

Ok, I sent in my application...I know if they are truly as deeply Catholic as they are said to be, a couple of things there will stand out...still, the worse that can happen is that they won't hire me...

Now, I was thinking (because another friend now has been asking around and told me that the friend of a friend - small city!- works there, and that she gets 50% off the tuition for her second kid, but that has to pay full for the eldest...)...what would I do if they did offer me the same salary as here, but NOT offered Ale's tuition??...or offered only half, which is still astronomical -imo- as the FULL tuition is ~$4K/year, plus the admittance bonus which is almost $2K!!....
You know what? I'd probably take it anyway! (I just wouldn't send my daughter there!)...I mean, the working hours would be infinitely better (say 7:30- 3 - let's say to 4) as opposed to 8-6...I'd still be able to find a second job, say from 5-7 and would be able to spend more time with Ale...

Dreams are free, aren't they??

An answer!!!- now what??

March 3rd, 2006 at 04:32 am

I'm stressed and decided to connect to one of my best friends through the messenger...she was in the shower, and I got her youngest kid! LOL! good thing I always start with: are you there??...
Anyway, checking my email, there was an answer from the school!!!....they received my resume and sent me an application form to fill...now I'm confused...there's a field that states:
civil marriage: YES / NO
religious marriage: YES/NO

...now, technically speaking, I should answer NO and YES...but, legally, that is sort of impossible (unless you are divorced, the way I am!)... I'll be honest, though, because nothing good ever came from lying, right??...and, if they are the sort of school who will not have a divorcee, I don't want to work there and I don't want my daughter there! (oh, and, in case I haven{t mentioned this before: no, my daughter is not my ex-husband's...I think I HAVE said that before!!)
Oh, well...since I have to sign the form, I'll fill it out/print it at the office, because I have a scanner there and so could send it in tomorrow!!

wish me luck!!

Taking action will always make you feel better!

Since there's nothing to do - at the time!- about the issues in my last posting, I decided to do SOMETHING that might result in more money....I send an email to the Ministry of Education asking how I can become certified (even if you graduated as a teacher, you still have to go to them for tests/certification and, as far as I knew, you didn't necessarily HAVE to be a college graduate to be certified, as long as you could pass the tests!....but, all this is hearsay, so, today I asked!!) ...of course, the bad thing is, now I have to WAIT to hear from them! LOL!

The waiting game...

March 2nd, 2006 at 05:33 pm

I've posted before about this: I hate waiting...I particularly hate waiting when the "ball" is in someone else's court...
Right now, I haven't been able to even file the documents for the loan because the admin at my sister's office hasn't issued it...not much I can do about that!...I have to WAIT!

I keep checking my email obsessively just to see if there are any responses...not yet, and, it really is too soon for a follow up email just yet!...what can I do?? WAIT!

I'm pending a follow-up meeting with my boss ref the reclassification (or not!) of my job...I already sent him the file detailing all that I do, but, the other admin hasn't (I expect he'll try to kill two birds with one stone here, as he said he wanted to get the file so he could study it and then have a chat with us about it)...I even started it for her so all she has to do is fill out the hours!!!...so, I have to WAIT ...on top of that, he's been training outside the office, so I know he's baglogged AND he called in sick yesterday (there's a nasty bug going around, I've had 1 PM in the hospital!)...so, again, what can I really do about it?? WAIT!...I have to give him a week at least to get up to speed!... Frown

no answer yet

March 1st, 2006 at 04:43 pm

...I was checking and, I still haven't reeived any answers from the companies where I submitted resumes 15 days ago... Frown

This really depresses me....

and stresses me out....

I'm starting to feel that knot in my throat again...the one I had when my parents were still alive, and money problems were really serious....I feel like I'm slipping into the dark hole of debt again...I REALLY don't want to go there...
