It’s not that exciting ultimately
I did a no call no show on a teaching job and broke a tenured teacher contract
Like NOBODY does that
Two degrees - history and education / 6 certifications (exams $200 a pop plus however many hours of study time, mandatory classes, papers I wrote, documentation for the extra certifications) / three years of probation before being awarded tenure
Then one morning I just decide I’m not going back. I blocked all their numbers. Didn’t open their mail. Didn’t return to clean out my desk. Didn’t return my badge and key. Just snip. That’s all there was to it. After that I slept for 16-20 hours a day for about 3 months. Then I figured I’d get some kind of social service job. Then I the truth hit. So now I’m in rebuild mode. That’s all there is to it.
The answer to the question why I did that is like I don’t know exactly. Some of the **** that led to my collapse is ****ing insane. I guess that’s where a lot of the stories are with some damning **** about public schools and some damning **** about myself.
Anyway, it’s over and I’m moving on. That’s the best I can do.
