I'm burned out on working all the time. I want a 5-day work week again.
Me too...I was telling my coworkers that when my son gets old enough that he no longer needs before and after school care, I will find a better paying job in the DC area or maybe at Gallaudet University if I still havent gotten a raise by then. Next year, no raise again, making it 5 years in a row with no raises and my take home pay is getting smaller each year due to increasing taxes and teacher pension. My son is 6 years old now so i am hoping he can walk to and from school by 9 years old so thats 3 years away. I do not want to f***cking work 2 f***cking jobs for the rest of my life and if that means quitting my teaching job, so be it. I will not wait around forever for raises...I will make it happen and get a better paying job. Right now, I cant work in DC because I need to work close to home due being able to make it home in time to pick up my son from daycare before it closes.
