Ogle Middle interview − 21 July, 2006
I got in the car at 4am. I had to be at the interview at 9am. Pittsburgh to Washington DC non stop, on the red eye.
This is so typical me. Extremes, always making a show of it. See what I did!!! "Look at that man mommy, what's he doing?"
"He's just odd son, come along..."
That's usually me.
I get to the school district offices. This is the district that my intro to ed teacher warned us all about. BY NAME!!! Yes, by name.
I walk in. Navy Blue Suit, stark white shirt, and a yellow power tie that screams I want this flippin job!
The lady takes me to her office. She says " We will get you interviews till you get a job."
"Well, I'm only here for one day."
" Yep, that's good. You can start with these 3 positions."
Kettering, Ogle, and another one.
I go to Kettering, it was like walking into the classic school. Those big fat floors with the little pebbles in in resin on the floor, the cream colored polished ceramic blocks, and the Principal there.
The interview was mostly him talking about himself. I got the feeling that he was trying to sell me his school. This does not bode well I thought. Especially when he commented that the teacher that I was replacing was just too good to stay in this district..
Next.
Ogle.
I got there and this woman met me in the conference room.
Business attire, firm professional voice, and rather intimidating physically. She filled the room in many ways. Most good.
the questions were right on target. I was very impressed. This was the kind of person that I wanted to be working for.
She offered me the job.
No more managing a Chinese restaurant this summer for me!!! I have to move to DC!!!
