Aargh

I am NEVER going to find a job! The one teaching position that I'm sort of holding out a little hope on (the one a friend is trying to pull some strings for) the posting closed yesterday and I was really hoping I'd get a call for an interview today. I know it's only about 2:30pm and there's still time left, but I have the feeling it isn't going to happen. If one person says to me to "think positively" I'll throw up. It's pretty bloody easy to say "think positively" when you aren't the one trying desperately to find a job with little to no success. I'm so sick of even thinking about trying to find a job, it's getting hard to motivate myself to even look at the job postings. The thing that really irritates me is that I know I'd be a good high school teacher! I did it before and it went really well--I got along with most of my students, got along with the administration and think I came up with some fun and educational lessons for my classes. You'd think enthusiasm would count for something.

Time is running out. Summer is almost over and I don't have a job. I didn't think it would be quite this hard (or depressing). When I got my first teaching job it just about fell in my lap, so I guess I'm paying the price now.
I'll keep you posted even though my whining probably bores you to tears.
