My Last Year... Hopefully

So I only have 9  more days of summer vacation before I am back at work. I am honestly not ready to go back into the drama-filled job right now. I prefer to be drama-free.

I do believe this is my last year. I can't imagine coming back after May 2014. I'll have my 1 1/2 years in next month and my 2 years in February. I am determined not to spend the rest of my life working at this place where I can't even afford to pay my student loan bills. I'm an education woman and this is not the job for me.

Two More Weeks/ Possible Pay Cut

In two weeks I'll be back at work. Ugh. Unfortunately, I did not apply to any other jobs this summer. This month has been the most stressful month ever! Obviously I'm not ready to go to work, but other factors have also been weighing in.

Looks like there have been some job cuts in my school district. So far it's only been the "higher ups" but it may go down to my level. So although I was told my job would be fine, now I'm not so sure.

In other news, I've went to the district's website yesterday and I found what looked to be different salaries for teachers and teacher assistants from last year. If it is true then my salary would be taking an $800 pay cut.

I would be bringing home $80-$100 less a month. If this is true, I would definitely have to look for another job because my bills already takes half of my paycheck. I can't afford to lose money.

I hope I'm wrong. I'm sure others will have questions when we return for the school year.
