I'm still quite alive and generally feeling meh with my job right now.
I'm working in a daycare center with a class of four year olds and it's...exhausting.
It's a fine reminder that I really don't want to have kids and that I crave intellectual stimulation on a daily basis most days, or at least conversations that are focused on non-kid subjects.
I'm glad I took this job because I get to add a lot of experience and save a lot of money, but I don't think I can keep at this job at all.
I want something more challenging than teaching children their ABCs.
I want a schedule that focuses on actually teaching kids things like mathematics, writing, how to fucking read.
This daycare shit is about playing, which is not a bad thing, but it's not what I worked hard to become a master at.
I'm not sure what I expected going into this job, but what I'm getting out of it is unfulfilling and frankly, very dull.
I'm hoping once this paperwork period is over with I can move on to focus more on actually teaching the kids things they ought to learn.
eyyy glad to see you! Sorry about work : T I'm in a similar position of meh with mine too.
I too am alive; got another week of hiatus yet but I'm itching to get the ball rolling again as soon as I am able
Hell yeah! I'm going to try and keep myself going at work and see how I feel.
