Didn't Get It

So I wanted to write a blog reporting whether or not I got the full time teaching job I'd applied for at one of the schools I am teaching part time. The process has been long, but has taught me a lot about the field.

I didn't get the job, but was told to apply next time there is an opening because they really liked me and my talent/knowledge.

Knowing me (which most of you do) you can expect that I've already come up with a list of "on the bright sides."

BRIGHT SIDES:

• I most likely won't have to teach 5 or more sections of DEVELOPMENTAL math next semester.
• I have the opportunity to get an even better suited position in the future.
• I met some nice people: peers I'd only emailed before this process.
• I re-acquainted myself with a friend.
• Other adjunct math teachers have talked to me more since finding out I'd made it past the first interview.
