boo-hoo, whine whine,

I didn't get a campus invite.  I have no idea if I was even in the ball park for that university.  It was flattering to get a phone interview, but sucks to not get to the next step.  I know my stuff and if they have any applicants like we flew in last year, they'll suck.  Anyway, moving on.  There's an asst dean's job at crazy school that just opened.  I just don't think I could do it.  I may kill someone considering there is only one other Ph.D. on staff and he got his degree through generic online school (oh, you know the one....).  Yes, all the deans just hold masters, and some of those are from crazy online schools.  I may hold out and con't to pimp adjunct.  I did find two other jobs to apply for, but they're not tenure track at a university.  Both are admin jobs at CCs.  Hmmm...... maybe someone is trying to tell me something??  Whatever, I believe in fate....must be patient.  That's SOOOOO not my personal trait.

MIA student at crazy school wanted to meet with me today before class.  No show.  Gee, I'm not surprised.  She turned in all the work for the first half of the course in my mail box (what part of 5 pts a day off for being late do you not get????).  Most of it is worth nothing.  Perhaps if she actually came to a class.....hmmm, that may just be too much for her!  

Spring break is next week for one school and the week after for another.  Gee, I wish we could have coordinated schedules so I could have gotten a break!  Oh-well.  So is the life of the adjunct whore.  Perhaps I need to change the title of this blog????
