My apologies
I have been pre-occupied due to getting layed of from my teaching position, it is kind of hard to start over when you have been doing a job that you have a passion for then you loose it at the age of 52. Just goes to show that there is no job cut safe! If you pray please add me to them so that I can find gainful employment!

i would keep an eye out in rutherford county. I work in the tech department here and there are SEVERAL positions that are going to come open this year. We had several principals change schools and that always causes openings.
the RCS website
http://www.rcs.k12.tn.us/education/c...hp?sectionid=1
and the link to the job postings.
https://ats4.searchsoft.net/ats/app_...NY_ID=00014776
You can reach this through the HR link then employment opportunities... you can go on the right hand side on the site and see the certified openings with out filling out all the info.

I definitely know where you are coming from and no apologies needed.
From 2008 to 2011, I went thru one job moving out of state laying off my following job laying off then closing and the last job I downsized. Now I stay at home with the girls.
You'll get through it man. I promise.

Yeah they had two Criminal Justice positions open, one at Blackman and one at Siegel. I interviewed for both but was not selected.

Think outside of the box there are plenty of jobs out there. I had to reinvent myself 5 years ago and got my fist desk job ever with AT&T. Before that I was a real estate and mortgage broker before that I was a teacher. There are always good paying jobs out there for competent people who are willing to work. My mother-in-law found one up here at age 63 after we moved, so keep a positive attitude, and don't be scared to try something new.
