I’m debating whether or not I should take a gap year before starting the teaching course.
This is on the basis that I find a casual job with full time hours. I really wanted to do teaching but everyone around me is saying I shouldn’t do it because of behaviour management, taking work home, and that I’m too much of a stresshead. I also have unmanaged ADHD, constantly submitting things late.
I think I’ll try the teaching course and then apply for OT if it doesn’t fit.
Always regretted not taking a gap year. If you can manage it, do it. You may discover your life’s passion who knows…
Part of me wants to run away and work at a bar somewhere.
Could you work as a teacher’s aide for a while to sus out what it’s like to work at a school? (Although you might need a cert to do that - not sure)
This is something I’m looking into!
Teaching is really something you have to love to do.
You’ll often feel unappreciated and have to put in a lot of hours for meetings and after work meetings.
There’s also communications with parents as well and they aren’t always a nice thing to deal with.
Depending on where you work you may have to deal with dual curriculums and you’ll have even less time to teach.
Then there’s the dreaded report writing.
I think pay may have gotten better and it’s certainly an area where jobs are in demands at the moment.
I would say take a gap year if you’re feeling a bit lost/overwhelmed because god knows it becomes much harder to do as you get older. And some of the people you meet/experiences you have may turn out to be pivotal to the rest of your life, even if you end up going in a different direction.

One of those unhealthy weird chicken rolls that come in a plastic bag thanks.
My work bought pizza today because they made everyone come in due to big systems switch. It’s dominos and it’s all thick crust 😞
My work bought pizza today
There’s your pay raise.
Dominos has to be the worst pizza out there, right? My local (when I used to go) did a Hawaiian with about 10 pieces of pineapple, a sprinkle of ham, and an overwhelming amount of paste it basically tasted like bread and tomato paste.

Some sort of triple layer sandwich for me, and Mr Woof would like some leftover cat food please.

I have a big fat jaw-welding chunky peanut butter sammich and for some reason the cats INSIST i have something for them.
They’ve sniffed it and disregarded the sammich, but persist in demanding…something
Last vintage vinyl was Rudy Vallee radio shows with various great stars of the 1920s and 30s.
Gershwin interview www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEOQlyacEro
Huston singing September Song www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3mAT-4FdP4
Vallee was a truly disgusting person who was very charming once the microphone was on
he was much parodied by Fred Allen, Stan Frieberg and Hans Conried , who were radio and tv stars of the 50s and 60s like, . ( not the disgusting part, just the smarmy part )
It was wonderful hearing Bert Lahr do some of his vaudeville routine ( I couldn’t find a copy anywhere ) , it was the same schtick he did as the Cowardly Lion years later on The Wizard of Oz. He was a very famous star and the audience at the time would have gotten all those old jokes he did. Us, we have no clue what he’s doing, just that he was amusing and eccentric.
Still working for another hourrrrrrrr
Then you’ll be free I tell you, freeeeeee!
I’ll argue it was still his first try because he didn’t stop trying
Oh sick discovered a camper my car can actually tow! Got a turbo diesel with nearly 2 tonnes of towing capacity, but if I stand on the towball thats almost too much weight for it. Not exactly the best design in the world.
Ask for a test drive to the local weigh bridge before committing…just to make sure
unfortunately not that simple. Its the actual weight at the towball itself that’s my limiting factor. A little baby camper trailer will almost always be under a tonn. And there isnt a great way to measure tow ball limit annoyingly.
Can you get airbags installed or better suspension? Still seems pretty crazy, my MUX tows my camper fine without airbags.
MUX is a lot bigger car than a mid sized SUV though. Diesel engine cant compensate for a chassis and suspension engineered for ride comfort.
If I ever see an old vinyl from the soviet bloc I am sure to snap it up.
Today I was not disappointed. I got a 1968 Supraphon recording of Beethoven 1st and 9th symphonies from Czechoslovakia.
omg, it is awesome www.youtube.com/watch?v=19jqWhCv2o4
I used to buy joke singles as gifts for an old friend of mine in high school, and I definitely recall buying a few Soviet Army Ensemble ones from the local Op shop 😆
I have all the albums. Not as a joke.
this is just amazing, what a voice, here those balalaikas, and the song, it’s Soviet Realist /Historic www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wDai9s4Hmc
I also like the Pet Shop Boys www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYsVdGN_sW4
Similar but different, I bought the Suicide 2nd album on discogs and after it arrived I noticed it was made in West Germany.
Hmm, do I get laneway tickets tomorrow or not? Really not vibing with the lineup but it’s always a fun day out and festivals are my home…
Good work deserves good recommendation, knowing where to invest, what to invest on, who to trust and how to make profit can be very difficult as a beginner, but when you work with the right people the road to financial freedom becomes a lot easier. She is really been a great help to me on this crypto affair. You need the right guidance too.
