Well, two years on from my first post here I am over educated and unemployed. Most of today was spent looking on Craigslist for something different and local. I took three surveys for paid studies and emailed a couple others for additional details. There are many openings to sell multiple level marketing CBD oil. Another post was a “middle aged man” with no social media skills wanting to hire someone to create a website/FB account for his business. Hmmm.. It sounded too creepy to even ask. My mom is a senior and she is an internet whiz.
I can’t really complain though. This past September to June 2019 I worked at a high school as a 1:1 paraprofessional for a 9th grader with non-verbal, severe Autism. He was a trip! Probably the best job I have ever had. I’ll talk about him and his classmates in future posts. I had to pinch myself that I was spending the day making sure this young man didn’t injury himself. Meaning..he had this little propensity to elope. No, he didn’t get married; eloping is usually running from the classroom, home, etc with the intent to run away and especially away from. Everyday for three months this guy eloped out to the road beside the south side of the school. I caught up with him most of the time, but a couple times he ran into the road. Eventually I was able to keep him in the classroom, more on that to come.
My dream job working with my student was only for the nine months of the school year. My last day was at the end of June. Unemployed again…
Interviews again..5 in the past month. Most of them end with “thank you, but we are interviewing oodles of other candidates and it will be at least two weeks until you hear back from us.” One of them took three weeks and I figured they weren’t going to hire me anyway, so just tell me. Yawn….
