I'm with my husband in Galicia ( part of northern Spain). Really pretty area that is known for its fishing but not a very touristy area ( most go to south). We pretty much are just cooking and eating the seafood we get from the local
markets, drinking wine, and that's about it. Hard to watch the world cup games when this is your view ( but go Team Sweden!)

No. I will never teach again.

it’s nothing special

restaurant/bar work on the beach

Hopefully I can make a good impression and next year I can get some references and some kind of clerical social work job

I went crazy and burnt my bridges but I get knocked down I get up again

Just how willing are you to go into that? If you want to PM me or something I'd love to hear a crazy OH story.

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.

s that gash in your leg
Really why you have stopped?
'Cause I've noticed all the others
Though they're gashed, they're still going
'Cause I feel like the real reason
That you're quitting
And admitting that you've lost
All the will to battle on
Will the fight for our sanity
Be the fight of our lives?
Now that we've lost all the reasons
That we thought that we had
Still the battle that we're in
Rages on till the end
With explosions, wounds are open
Sights and smells, eyes and noses
But the thought that went unspoken
Was understanding
That you're broken, still the last
Volunteer battles on
Battles on
Battles on
Battles on

This song captures the feeling

I kind of did that with a good supermarket job when they still existed. (The supermarket is still there; the good jobs aren't). I was miserable there and, to make a long story short, I snapped and gave my two weeks notice. I've been a bum ever since
