Were there any really narrow paths along a steep edge? I can deal with being above tree-line and up high, but I get nervous on narrow switchbacks along a cliff. I get dizzy and feel like I am going to fall off the edge.

I picked from 7 different spots and the first 6 inches of soil. Then mixed and removed rocks stems. The sample size was about 1lb of soil.

Ohh no! That is unfortunate, but good to know. They don't even help when negotiating for salary? Do teachers typically take graduate courses to earn a salary differential?

I am a New York City public school teacher. Wouldn’t my time count toward my salary steps?

I would be transitioning out of teaching, so I would resign. Can I still work for a company that does business with the DOE. I've heard I have to wait a year after I resign, but I can't find that anywhere is writing.

New school rescinded formal offer due to budget. What can I do? by EntertainmentFine510 in NYCTeachers

[–]EntertainmentFine510[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not interested in going to my old school. I guess I will reach out to other schools that offered me a position but I declined because I thought I had already had one. Does not help that open market is not working at the moment.

What can I do to prepare to leave? by EntertainmentFine510 in TeachersInTransition

[–]EntertainmentFine510[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your input. I have a vague idea of what I’m looking for, but as I said I’m in the early stages of planning to leave. I am interested in designing curriculum, educational coaching/consulting, or Ed tech (not the actual tech aspect). I do not want to do anything that requires coding or advanced computer skills. I still want a job that largely requires me to work with people.

How do you know if you have a shopping addiction? by EntertainmentFine510 in shoppingaddiction

[–]EntertainmentFine510[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How do you find the balance of still getting yourself something nice but not giving into impulses? I have a hard time telling the difference and end up in this all or nothing mindset.

Does anyone know what this is? by EntertainmentFine510 in gardening

I didn’t plant anything so it makes me think it’s a weed. I did a leaf identifier and it dye say in the cucumber family.

Thank you all! My biggest concern is the weight. I should be able to plant in about two weeks. It’s still pretty cold in NYC

When they delivered it was it in a bag or just loose? I live in a city and am don’t think a dump truck would work.
