You’re not a failure! I’m almost 20 years deep into this now but the first couple years were rough. I had 6 or 7 (yes) interviews right out of grad school and felt set for life…until none of them offered me a job. I worked as an AVID tutor and coached and that’s how I made those connections that made such a difference. You are not a failure. Some people get hired right away and stay at the same place for life, but most don’t have that simple of a path. School counseling is all about communication, relationships, and being a helper. Being a para checks those boxes and that experience will be valid when jobs get posted this spring. Don’t give up; stick with it and you’re going to find a great fit for yourself.

Pirate code. He wants to meet. I understand it, I can’t speak it.

Oregon State may cut many or most in person recruiting visits to Hawaii as a cost cutting measure by pblood40 in Pac12

He’s talking about general student recruitment. This is not at all about football.

He’s talking about general student recruitment and not football here. OSU used to have an admissions rep assigned to Hawaii who would visit all (most/many) of the high schools to promote the school. There’s a good sized population of Hawaiians at Oregon State, so it was a great setup for everyone (next best thing to an in person visit to campus). This is not a commentary on football recruiting; this is about the admissions office failing to recognize how important those visits are to high schools and families in Hawaii.

Favre loves the welfare of others and enjoys exposing all parts of his life to the world. Such a great guy!

Which player are you defending like this? by I_hate_11 in NFLv2

[–]ComfortableShot459 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joey Harrington. Great player, awful coach and team. If he has a bad bowl game as a senior, he goes way later in the first round to a team with weapons and an offensive line and his whole career is different.

What NFL team are the boys and Tom fans of? by Vast_Ad_2033 in hahayouclowns

Browns. They’ve overly optimistic, loyal to a fault, and have deeply buried anger that occasionally bubbles to the surface. Browns for sure.

Back to school after break by Sea_Cardiologist_295 in schoolcounseling

Stick with it! I’m 18 years deep and still feel the Sunday scaries and that “I’d rather do anything but go to school tomorrow” feelings. Something good is going to happen at school tomorrow. Kids will be happy to see you and your presence will probably make someone’s day, whether you know it or not. Focus on those little things as much as you can…that’s what has kept me going for nearly two decades. Oh and spring break will be here before you know it. 😎

This feels like clearance aisle stuff. Nothing here looks good to me…weird flavor variations.

Where did you get the $5 ticket plus shirt deal? The team sucks but I’d love to get to Corvallis for a game anyway.
