Seven Dollar's...Bitch

So my girl..the one who always gives me so much insight..stuff I already know and can tell people, but somehow I can't take my own advice. Anyway she had me cracking up when I told her about this....and she now calls the situation "Seven Dollars Bitch"

I have been sending my resume everywhere. I've been on 2 interviews.

So I don't know maybe Monday I checked my gmail account. After remembering that the email on my resume is for gmail. So I got a reply back. Damn I said..That's not good. I emailed them anyway. Their name was Wande..I'm like man or woman???

So I email "it" and tell them this and that. I ask if they are still interested.

In less than 5 mins. in my inbox was a reply that said resend your resume.

So I do...............

Your reseume looks great. Can you please come in for an interview Monday morning anytime between 8am-10am. Please bring a portfolio if you have one, sample lesson plans or anything else that will give us a glimpse of who you are. We have hired our lead teachers and must hire our teacher assistant by Monday afternoon. The position will start on Tuesday, July 29, 2008. We run on the same calendar year as Clayton County Pre-School system, so when they are out for holiday/breaks, pre-k is out as well. We are lookin for an organized individual ith a deep love for children. The state does pop up visits and bonuses are dependent on how well you score during the state visits.The starting salary for a para-pro (teachers assistant in $6.55-$7.00 per hour. This position only requires that the individual be at least 21 years old and you must provide a criminal background check if hired. We look forward to seeing you, if you are interested.

Misspelled words and punctuation mistakes..is it that hard to use spell check?


Okay..

So I talk to my girl. I give her the run down and what not. She was cracking up at the fact that I could actually make 45 cent's less. She called me the Seven Dollar Bitch... Then she told me what I already knew..That I just needed a check..




So I go on the interview....

I get there..and boy..I see why they are paying 7.00. The application ya'll..Was typed for the most part. But you better believe somebody forgot something and was too lazy to do it over..so they decided to draw in the subject lines that they forgot. Desired Salary_______.

I fill out the application. I'm sitting there and waiting. Listening to the voices around me. Boy...It was African American Vernacular Land..

Okay..I don't talk about people. Wande is a woman. Here is her description. She's cute in the face. She has coaco brown skin, and a huge ass. It was just out there, and you know a skinny girl like me sometimes has ass envy. Then I wake up and realize that I am healthy, and I have year and years to get old and "thick". Where she goes wrong is..That hair..it wasn't her hair. And if yo shit looks like a damn rug...please women don't just think it's okay to walk around like that. It was like a curly afro, I guess. But that shit looked a hot mess.

Anyway we begin the interview. I tell her that I made a powerpoint of some lesson plans. She was pleased. We talked. I had the job. She told me that they had hired the lead teacher in the email she sent me the previous day, but somehow the day of my interview..they just couldn't find the right person..Well yeah..
She showed me the school. Paint was chipping off of the walls. The floors were dirty. EW. It smelled of mold. Then she showed me the classroom that I would be in. It was 10 times worse. She said the previous teacher had to just take stuff off of the wall. No..it looked like she let the kids have a lets fuck up this room party.


So anyway I asked if my baby girl could go there. Knowing that I REALLY don't want her to. But at least we could be together. She said yes....for 45 dollars a week... *gulp*

She gives me the paper work for baby girl..and tells me she will call me tomorrow..Which was yesterday.

I didn't hear from her.

I email her... asking if she found the lead teacher yet..


This is what I got..

"we are still searching for the lead teacher. just can't find the right person with the proper credentials and good in the classroom. i apologize for the delay, i wasn't at the center yesterday and i'm not there today, either. we did hire an assistant teacher who holds a degree in early childhood education and is very familiar with the bright from the start requirements and state requirements so it would not involve as much training on our part. thank you for your interview and good luck in your job search!"



Wow..a person with a degree is going to work for 7.00...I am amazed. I would have worked there ya'll. My meditation that I use in my daily life worked. I meditated on the fact that I am exactly where I am supposed to be. Because of both my blessings, and choices good or bad. I meditated on me being able to make my dreams come true because to break it down. I am my own God, who is lead by some spiritual being.
That job wasn't right for me...

So this is my plan...gotta have a plan..

I will continue to look. But as long as I stay home. And don't drive much. I can just buy food and stay put until I have to.

My school has me f-ed up. I should have graduated like 2 years ago..but I missed classes because they only offer the damn thing once a year, or they only have one damn class, at one time.. Which is what I'm running into now. So I've decided it's time for me to transfer. My classes are all through the day..everyday like they were last fall/spring. It was very hard..school was my life. And I actually do well if that is my only focus.
But if I do find a job that is during the day..I lose classes. Ahhh..

Everything will work out...I have faith.. in me..
