Taravella.. a high school in Coral Springs, hired one of my classmates a few days ago for a Social Science position..
GREAT for her right?? Totally cool, thats awesome.. congrats, blah blah.. Im a bit jealous but whatever, gives me hope..
Then i learned yesterday... that.. she HASNT EVEN TAKEN THE SOCIAL SCIENCE subject area exam, which is REQUIRED to teach Social Science, in Florida.. WTF?!?!?!?!??!
She was studying for the exam in class last night, and I was like.. uhh didnt you already take that??
No! Im taking it Saturday..
and you got hired at Taravella??
Yeah why?
Umm.. you need to have passed that exam before you can teach..
Oh i know..
WTF?! It takes 30 days for the results to come back.. she hasnt taken ANY of the required exams yet for the state (professional education exam and the Social Science one..) and yet she already got hired..??
I took and passed those exams last year, and when I went to apply last year.. nobody would hire me because I didnt have any teaching experience.. (neither does she..) Soooo I subbed all last fall and this spring.. and worked as a teachers aide, even...
Ive passed out 20 something resumes to various schools... and i STILL cant get hired...even though Im qualified, and certified, and eligible.. AND have experience.. and yet.. this girl.. with NONE of the above.. already has a fucking job..
Im so pissed...
