The Panic List

Today, I will have to create my "Panic List". This is the list any teacher without a job to start next week should make. It includes the following:

Apply for sub positions with at least 4 schools

Panic

Call the school you interviewed with last, you know the one that never called, and make sure that the person they did call hasn't moved, died, or spontaneously combusted

Panic

Clean everything you can to keep you busy

Panic

Call people you know and beg them to talk to their bosses about what a wonderful worker you are and how great you would be at (__________) insert any job title here

Panic

Consider WalMart, Meijer, or McDonald's as a fine possibility for a career move

Panic

Apply for that 1 1/2 hour playground supervisor job, that 3 hour a week reading tutor job, that half-time aide job, and make sure your WalMart schedule will work around it

Panic, have a drink, panic again and start all over tomorrow
