I taught English in Japan for a year. It was an awesome experience. And the pay was pretty good for someone straight out of college. However, I...
They've got a similar thing going on right now - a lot of hype about a shortage, but a lack of employers hiring. The RN hiring shortage seems to...
I've honestly given up hope of getting anything this school year. I decided to take a 3-week intensive class to pass the time and get out of the...
I have not gotten a job yet. :( Been looking outside of teaching, as well. At this point, I'm thinking of going back to school to get a nursing...

Sending good thoughts your way, Alice!
McKenna! I was beginning to worry about you because I hadn't seen you post here in a few days. I know about getting to that point. I've been...
