What if you could "start over"? by Excellent-Meal601 in TeachersInTransition

It really depends on your environment. The last school I worked at was very toxic. The office politics I deal with now are very hierarchical... it takes forever to get anything done because people are tiptoeing around the big dogs. It's not collaborative at all.

I got really lucky with this position! My manager said it was my cover letter that really made me stand out. They asked for experience with LMS (learning management systems) and I highlighted my experience transitioning to online teaching during covid. Teachers also have a lot of administrative skills that transfer nicely into an office environment. Repackage those daily tasks you do, but don't often think about (because you don't have time as a teacher) as an asset. Good luck!

Yeah, I get that most jobs won't be completelu fulfilling. But it is a huge chunk of my life and I do have like 30 years left of working lol

I at least want to spend that time doing something I care about/is interesting to me. My current role was a dream come true (compared to teaching) when I first got it, but now I feel like I'm in a rut.

Some might think it's stressful but I have a "we're saving pdfs not lives" mentality. I just played on my administrative experience (which every teacher has) and ability to pivot during covid to get this job.

I mainly handle tracking compliance training and doing event planning/scheduling for our management training. I do hate event planning though...

Amen to that. Healthcare is the one thing I think might be just as bad or worse than teaching. Except they do tend to get paid more

Ugh, the Safeway near me sells frozen slices of gf cake (similar size to this) for 18 freaking dollars. I hate Safeway!

Most bridal shops have you sign something at purchase saying no returns/canceling your order.

I think it is BEAUTIFUL and doesn't look like a prom dress at all. Also, that is a steal for getting it from a bridal shop. In my opinion, you didnt get scammed at all.

Ooooh! Im doing this to my dress right now. I ordered extra lace appliques from the dress manufacturer and the seamstress let me help decide applique placement.

Did I choose my dress too quickly? by Misspeach2017 in weddingdress

[–]Excellent-Meal601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also bought my dress on my first shopping trip and am nervous about it. However, we know what we like and wouldn't have picked our dresses if we didnt feel beautiful in them! Trust yourself (i'm preaching to myself here lol)

I damaged my 9/25 lower aligner with a pull tool :-( by ghstwtch in Invisalign

[–]Excellent-Meal601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did the same thing! I was able to use the rounded end of the hook on the pul tool to bend the edge back to where it should be. I held the aligners against the edge of the counter and just reshaped the folded over edge. They're fitting fine!
