O.o

I think another langauge school is trying to poach me.

Got a phonecall today from one of the schools I dropped a resume into about a month ago. The lady had just got back from holiday and called me at about 6:30 this evening (which is weird, 'cause most schools close about 5pm). Asked if I was interested in work and I had to tell her that I'd just started working at Holmes on Tuesday....

...didn't phase her in the slightest. She still wants to talk to me! Invited me to the school for a chat and tour of the facilities at 3pm on Wednesday next week.

Now, I know for a fact that there's 4 permanent teachers leaving for other jobs in December. If I get offered a permanent contract I'm going to be really, really tempted to take the offer. That sort of permanence is what I need when I'm studying. In this industry if you don't have a contract then your job's on shaky ground. When class numbers start to get small, the casuals are the first to go. A contract would prevent that.

I might be getting ahead of myself, but it's starting to look like I've got options for the first time in my life. It feels amazingly good.
