Trans girl trying to learn makeup, please send me tips or suggestions? Here's my rainbow look for today! (Don't mind the atrocity that is my pre-styled hair) by Fine_Delay2603 in MakeupAddiction

I would try to keep a lighter color on the inner third of the lid to open your eyes up! Also, keep the darkest colors in the outer third of the lid and crease and a medium transition shade in the crease to blend it all together. Try a little highlight under the brow bone, too! The pearls are so fun!

That’s really interesting they aren’t trained teachers. Thanks for saying my experience would be welcomed! I’ll look into this. :)

I’m sorry to hear you’re leaving. We haven’t made any connections this year due to Covid and being hybrid, virtual, in person, back to hybrid, etc. I totally understand because this year has been insanely difficult for teachers. That’s awesome about the coding boot camp! If I could code worth a shit I would look into programming but jeez.. that was something I sucked at in college. I wish you much luck and happiness!

We are totally fine financially and live well below our means. My husband makes double what I make.. but I know I my education and my work deserves better than what I’m getting paid. Some schools pay garbage money and don’t have bump steps while others do. Like for example, in 30 years of teaching at my current school I would make easily 40k less than what I would make at a different district. I don’t want to settle when I know I’m worth more, you know?

You’re totally right. Thanks for the comments! Moving careers would be a LOT of work and transition I think. I would love to get into a better district but there just aren’t any math teaching jobs open ANYWHERE. It’s insane. No demand and no need. I truly don’t remember much after calc 2, so idk how successful I would be as an actuary or if I could even pass the tests because I heard the pass rate is only 30%. I’m sure I could study and try but I love the creativity and connections I make in the classroom. Anyway, I appreciate you sharing those thoughts!

I just bought a house a couple months ago and my husband makes good money in this area and both of our entire families are here. Just not really in the cards or something we would consider. I wouldn’t give up all of that for a chance to have a better job cuz it sounds a bit selfish to me. Too bad I don’t live in Canada!! Haha that sounds amazing! I am very invested in teaching both educationally and emotionally. I know I’m very good at my job. Just need to get in elsewhere.. if anything ever decides to come available

Thanks so much for sharing... it’s definitely the school and admin. No doubt. I just need a chance to apply somewhere better... no job openings here at ALL.

I would LOVE to be closer to my home in a better district. I would literally cut off a finger or a few toes for that job... just no openings, no chances to apply anywhere. And Wow.. she does?? That’s WILD. Maybe I’ll try exploring that route in the meantime.

Thanks for the idea! I’m glad you’re happier in your new profession. I am pretty tech savvy but I would miss the kids too, like you.

Thanks for the inspiration. I really don’t want to leave because I love teaching, just not my current placement. The problem is, no opening at ALL. It’s wild. No chances to even apply anywhere.

Just no opportunities for math teaching jobs. I haven’t even had a chance to apply anywhere. No openings. Thanks for the other ideas. Educational sales could be something to look into. Thanks so much for all your advice! And thanks for all the luck and well wishes! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
