Today I started my new job. This is the 2nd job I've held since moving here LOL The first job was a bit far to travel to and I only would've worked 2 days a week (WTH?!) No travel compensation, no stability in the job whatsoever, but it paid $20p/h. Whatever...too bad it wasn't full time, then I would've stayed-NOT.
Today I started my new job, assistant director/bus driver/group leader. Pretty interesting in that there's only 35 kids, but today there was only 20+. Sooooooooo chill compared to the previous centers I've worked where we had at least 100+ kids in the morning and topping over 2oo kids in the afternoon LOL forget about all days outs where we were busting at the seams at 260+ YIKES! I laughed to myself when the Molly mentioned that it get too loud w/ just 11. Obviously she hasn't worked in a large group setting and doesn't do well w/ a large group. I was really feeling like I didn't contribute today, but then again, I was there to just 'observe.'
Even though this facility is brand spankin new and enrollment needs to get a boost, In the mean time I'm just gonna enjoy this laid back job for the time being. I've got things I'd like to implement into this program as well as my many ideas to helping boost this center to it's FULL potential. Watch out kids, Ms. Dawn is back and I'm comin in like a freight train ;)

I admire your courage to just pick up and move to a new city and find a new job. Yes I have done it several times, but Its always very scary, and each time I have moved, i already had a job waiting for me. Today I am at a crossroads. Do I want to move back to Atlanta? If so, how soon? Will I find a job before I move? its all very scary. I love how you just know that you will land on your feet, and always in the field that you want. I cannot honestly say that each time I have moved, that the job I was in was the job that I wanted, but rather one i usually got stuck in just to make sure i had income coming in... any advice?
