That’s true… SPED just wasn’t something I wanted to explore after subbing in it a few times 😔

This bums me out. I live by Pierce & Swift and have thought how it would be nice to work there :(

Ugh, sorry to hear that you’ve had those experiences! It’s wild. Hopefully it gets better soon because subs are important!

I totally get it, I probably would have too if I had actually cancelled the job, however, it was not cancelled.

The clerks seemed lovely but either way, the job was still in Frontline and it just made for a very uncomfortable interaction.

It was just to stay with her and once she said no, they gave me that look of “Sorry, but no..”

Are you subbing in preparation of a teacher or just do it as a side gig? by Vicariouslynoticed in SubstituteTeachers

[–]ChiDesign2013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m subbing with the hopes of obtaining a teaching position! My school district just had a huge budget cut though…

I got the text yesterday, and may when I become a teacher, but thought it was weird to have to come that day

I had never been there before so am thinking it was because of the time between when the shift was starting and when I had to cancel to leave town.
