Oohmmm!!!

A sabbatical would be a great thing, if I could afford it. In my area of work we can't take paid sabbaticals, so unless I can financially manage it (which I can't), I can't take one.

I do have a ton of holiday time coming to me still (about a month's worth or so), so I may take it all off and just re-think things.

It could just be one of those "I don't like my job" moments that will pass in time. I think everyone experiences them at some point. I've felt it before, but just not to this same degree. This time it feels very different. I think I have just developed different interests and now enjoy different things and those things aren't quite meshing with my current career as a counsellor. I'm not sure how to combine all of that into a new career, but I am thinking long and hard about it.

Thanks for letting me get this out girls. lol I have been holding on to this for awhile now [img]confused.gif[/img]

Is the chai helping Terry? Do you need to get something out? If you need to, you know where I am. Where we all are. [img]smile.gif[/img]

That would be fabulous Terry! - If you could get a position at one of those schools *Crosses fingers*

Terry I hope you manage to get work closer to home!

Laurie, hard to add to what the others have already said, but I hope a decent break/holiday helps!!

Sorry both you and Laurie are feeling a bit fed up today.

[img]smile.gif[/img] I'm not fed up Janie - just eternally amazed at the awesome stupidity of some ppl. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Laurie, I hope that it's just a glitch and that you find some peace of mind. Maybe a vacation is just what you need. I've still got room in my garage btw. [img]wink.gif[/img] lol

I too am having to think long and hard about my next step b/c my contract finishes in 10 weeks. The time has really flown by. I'm not sure if I want to stay at that school (the journey is an utter bitch) but I deffo want to carry on doing the same sort of work. [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font size="3" face="Tempus sans ITC, Papyrus,Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Is there a possibility of doing similar work, but closer to your home?

^^ I hope so Laurie. There're about 5 or 6 Primary (Elementary) schools within walking distance from my house so it'd be great if I could snag a job at one of those. *crosses fingers* [img]smile.gif[/img]
