I am a 2nd semester teacher, and I really do not like my job. The workload is ENORMOUS. Literally, the only thing I have time for is school work. I do not participate in any of the hobbies that I used to enjoy because I no longer have time for them. I do nothing but eat, drink, and breathe school. It is SOO draining. For example, I worked away my entire weekend & still did not get everything completed. Today, I stayed at work until 7:00 attempting to get my report cards finished - not even close! It is now nearly midnight, and I still have to type report card comments for over half my students, plus create a math quiz, plus figure out what I am going to do for social studies tomorrow because I did not have the energy to stay even LATER at school getting the materials ready for what I previously had planned. I feel like I am missing out on things and am resentful towards people who actually get to enjoy thier life. I am considering going back to school to become a librarian...
