On the one hand, I love my job. I absolutely love the kids I work with and am on pretty good terms with the rest of the band staff.
On the other hand, my life is pretty boring. I have never been a crazy partier or anything (I don’t drink alcohol or much caffeine for that matter). I don’t go out to clubs and can’t stand the bar environment. But in a relatively small town (less than 50,000 people) that is over an hour from the next closest reasonably sized town, life can get to feeling pretty isolated.
A question I have for those of you out there who have been in this type of situation: When did you feel that it was time to quit teaching in one district and move to another?
A follow-up question: When you quit teaching and moved to greener pastures, did you regret doing so? Why or why not?
This has been something that has weighed on me pretty constantly for the past year and a half, which probably explains a little bit about why I am so undisciplined with the blog lately.
