Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Do you need the fingerprints for a job you're starting this m onth?
Need them to apply for credentialing which in theory I ought to have before I start work but obviously won't. I think it's possible to get the job and say that I've applied for the credential. But it would be better if I'd already taken the subject matter test. Except, hello, I wasn't here!
I guess we should all cross our fingers for private schools now.
Yeah, it's been sitting in my Amazon cart for a while, waiting for me to have a moment of weakness. But thanks!
In the interest of helping temptation along, it's available used here for about a quarter of Amazon's new book price.
There used to be (15 years ago) a lot of talk of emergency credentials and extensions of various kinds for teachers in high demand. Specifically math teachers. You may not be in as dire straits as you think.
You're fully credentialed in MA, right? You'd think that would count for something. Though i know California has some bizarre and nonsensical hiring restrictions.
Unfortunately, emergency credentials and exceptions are just the sort of thing everyone's trying to crack down on. Also, every classroom was supposed to have a "highly qualified" teacher by the end of last year. Amusingly, I'm highly qualified in Massachusetts, just not in California yet.
I'm sure there's high enough need. It's just that trying to do things online, which I prefer, means running into the innate problems of automation -- even though technically as someone certified in another state I have up to a year after being hired to take a certain test, my application may not actually get looked at because they've set up the application to require those test scores. That sort of thing. Which means I need to make personal contact, but god I suck at that.
There are scattered t-storms all over Chicago. When I got off the train it was hot and humid as fuck. I walked two blocks and suddenly it was cool. A half a block more and it was hot again.
That's a pretty typical Chicago day.
Emily, I'm sorry the hassles are mounting. Let me know if I can help with anything.
On a completely different note, I need to stop at Walgreens on the way home --do you need anything?

Don't think so. New brain? This one seems to be on the fritz.
ita around?
Oh, I understand the situation, now. Unfortunate that the automation isn't up to your complex case. I hope it's an easier and pleasanter process than it now seems.
