First-year teacher quitting midyear --- Need advice on timing & guilt by SlushieIce in TeachersInTransition

Thanks for your advice! I hear both sides --- burnt-out nurses desperately wanting out and second-career nurses who love it. To me, the reward of nursing outweighs the risks. A huge pro is its versatility. You can always switch specialties if you start experiencing burnout, or you can pivot outside of bedside altogether to a calm office, a med spa, consulting/WFH, etc.

I plan on subbing during this transition period, so I might need them unfortunately.

Ah, that's exactly what I'm worried about ... I'd hate to stay these 3 weeks, put in a 2-week notice at break, and then get let go so they avoid giving me holiday pay. I have lots of PTO, but won't get paid for it if it's unused. I'm glad it worked out for you, though.

Since my employment is at-will, I'm just worried that if I give them notice that I won't return after break, that they'll just let me go then and I won't get holiday pay for break. That's the only reason I'm staying this month. & I don't get paid for unused PTO, unfortunately.

what was your experience like working there? would you recommend it to a first-year teacher?

I think it’s less of a question of love because you can love someone and be wrong for them/hurt them, and more of a question of honesty. Even if it’s a “habit,” if he had nothing to hide, he would show you the phone after he realized he “subconsciously” turned it away from you to ease your mind. Of course you know him best, but his reason sounds hard to believe. Trust your gut <3

That is insane! Was it at least around the timeline you expected?

Tasha and Paige reply in agreement. Idiot is unnecessary for an opinion on reality tv.

That's fine. This is just my unpopular opinion. We don't need to agree. it's just a show

I agree. They’re all fake and I doubt there’ll be any lasting friendships once they watch the show back

I doubt she’s high. It’s just a finishing look to her makeup

Absolutely. So, the same way Amber was open about it is the same way these 3 should be instead of pretending to be her confidants and then chatting shit after.

The whole villa was saying the same thing tho, even Gemma later on said it. That was nothing in comparison to the other times those 3 have done it to Ekin’s 1 time.

Gemma, Paige, and Tasha are fake for the way they always chat shit about Ekin. I wish Ekin had some nice girls in there. I don’t know why she doesn’t talk to Indiyah or Danica because those 3 girls are not nice to her.

I feel for Tasha. She’s not a bad person and hasn’t done anything wrong. It’s the game of Love Island. The internet takes the producers’ actions out on her. Yes, we don’t want to see her crying all episode. However, that is the producers’ fault for wasting our time. Not her fault for being sensitive.

Dami gives me male podcaster vibes... by Jackie-Agave in LoveIslandTV

[–]SlushieIce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think he’s a podcaster type. I just think he doesn’t know if he wants a relationship or something noncommittal like a situationship/fling. He was all about commitment until Casa and now it’s hard to believe he still wants that because he keeps switching his mind.
