a story that'll never be finished...

all because i'm too lazy. so many things i want to do and not enough hours in a day.

right! today i went into northland, i think. basically north of auckland - not quite up to wangerei. (not sure if i spelt that one right).
it was really nice - sun was hidden behind clouds but for some reason it was still really bright. had the chance to read the new curriculum document that i've had for about a month and never read. teachers only day and got to read it so i can comment on it.

actually, was thinking that teaching is just too complicated for me. from designing lessons, creating resources, researching subjects, crowd control, behaviour management, presentation skills using all learning styles... what else? organising day trips, doing extra playground duty during your official breaks (surely that's illegal?) ... and more.

i think i'd much rather be doing the same job in a high level company for $100,000 per year rather than the meager amount that i get. problem with that is - no managing director is stupid enough to employ anyone with little or no experience to do such a high level job. ...or are they?

...thinks.... scrathes head...?!!

nope! definately not stupid enough to do such a thing.

problem now is that i've got some experience working with people from all walks of life from teaching, sales, missionary work, even working in a medical practice for homeless people, but nothing that'll get me a decent job in a decent company that'd be willing to train me up. maybe there is but it'll be a bit of searching. who knows - will give you an update in a year and a half...or thereabouts.
