End of an Era

By Cje95 | Texas Boy in a DC World | 8 Oct 2020


Tomorrow marks a really sad day for me. During this pandemic everyone has had to deal with mental health issues myself included. When I was offered a job to proctor kids I jumped at the opportunity to make some money. My mom always has told me I would end up a teacher and this was a chance for me to dip a toe into that  realm.

 

The first few weeks were rough. I had to learn to read the kids emotions and body language to keep them engaged in their school work and also learn how to do 2nd grade math..... I took business calculus in the spring and the kids are taught the long way to do math so I had to relearn that.... While I was able to safely say I do not envision myself as a elementary school teacher in the future I have come to love the kiddos I work with.

 

I am already down to the last 4 (I had 9 at one point). Thinking tomorrow is the last day I will ever work with them seems surreal to me. I can say they definitely left a mark on my heart and I will forever cherish the time we had. It also means that tomorrow is my last day at this job. Luckily I am a paid intern at a Congressional Campaign so I have that source of income however that will wrap up after the election in November and will once again be unemployed.

 

It’s just crazy to me to think I would be in this position after graduating in May when a year ago the economy and job market was booming. I will continue to count my blessing though for the jobs I have been able to get and what each one has taught me. I am anxious for my future and what it holds because like the old saying goes “this too shall pass” and I cannot wait for it to.

 

If anyone would like to help me out I am a Brave Creator and so if you have not downloaded in my opinion most secure internet browser out there it would mean a ton if you used my referral link here. All you have to do is download it and use it and you to can passively collect BAT tokens that can be exchanged for gift cards or other cryptocurrencys!
