I’m (24F) a teacher at a middle school and I love the kids but hate the day to day tasks of the job. Recently I’ve been waking up super depressed at the idea of having to go into work just to be paid pennies and spread to thin. It’s just becoming so exhausting.
I’m mostly hoping that if anyone knows of a job opening in New Hampshire/Mass area that wouldn’t make me so miserable to let me know! I’m been feeling extra bummed lately when I read posts here about people job hopping, because I feel like I can’t do that as much being a teacher. The only job opportunities to me are other teaching professions which I’m trying to avoid due to my burn out. Any tips for that?
I have been on indeed looking for alternatives, but they either pay worse than I get paid now, or have a really high burnout rate for their employees.
I’d love a remote job and today started looking at work from home tutoring positions. A lot of them say they’re only remote due to Covid though. I’d hate to accept a job just for them to turn around and say they need me in person. I’m not set on the tutoring idea so, if anyone has any other suggestions please let me know!
I just feel kind of stuck and don’t know where to go from here. Every day I wake up miserable thinking to myself “why can’t I just quit and not be poor,” but that’s impossible lol. Please feel free to comment with any tips or advice you may have for me!
