Yeah, I got to the end of the book and the end of the lecture series.\u00a0 That was enough! (It took me until 4:30 to complete.)\u00a0 I had no time for the Cliffs US history books.\u00a0 I would say \u201cmaybe tomorrow,\u201d but thanks to my friend Kristi, I now have a teacher\u2019s edition of a CA History book.\u00a0 I\u2019ll pour over that over the weekend, then give it back to her so she can give it back to the teacher she borrowed it from.<\/p>\n
Last week, Julius pressed me for a job.\u00a0 This week, Bob has done the same.\u00a0 And from what I understand, Trevor called a few days ago, no doubt wanting to see what\u2019s going on at ASD (and to see if I\u2019m free for a job perhaps).\u00a0 Gee, I guess I shouldn\u2019t have changed my LinkedIn status to \u201cformerly at ASD.\u201d\u00a0 It made me available.<\/p>\n
While I am appreciative of the interest, it\u2019s not where God wants me to go.\u00a0 God\u2019s clear on that, and I\u2019m clear on that.\u00a0 It feels weird to turn down jobs, but it\u2019s also the right thing to do right now.\u00a0 These job offers merely attempt to take my focus off of my goal of teaching, and I simply can\u2019t let that happen.<\/p>\n
Now, when I\u2019m settled in college, and I know my schedule, then I can start to consider employment that works within that frame.\u00a0 I can\u2019t take a full-time job right now, and I don\u2019t want to commit the bandwidth on jobs that do not pay now, and likely never will (as I suspect both Julius\u2019 and Bob\u2019s jobs would be).\u00a0 I did that last year, and I cannot do so moving forward.\u00a0 Trevor\u2019s job would want me to work 60+ hours a week.\u00a0 Consulting still seems like my best option, as it provides flexibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
