Job Seekers: Subbing length

How long do you really plan on subbing for? When is it time to say enough is enough already? I mean there comes a point when sub money just doesn't cut it. What is your point? And how long have you been subbing for?

Re: Job Seekers: Subbing length

to answer my own question I have been subbing for the most part since Spring 05 minus the year I was in florida for teaching.

I can't keep subbing till I get a LI job. I think if I don't have a job in sept (either somewhere in the city I am happy with or on the island) I am going back to business/accounting or getting a degree in something else.

its been rough subbing this year financially. We can't keep living off of a "possible" day of working.

Re: Job Seekers: Subbing length

I know what you mean. The past few months I have been working 5 days a week but I don't anticipate that happening the entire school year. I was a December 06 graduate so I don't know how much teachers really take off in those first few months Chat Icon

At this point I am planning on subbing another year which will be a year and a half and I don't know what I will do after that if no job opportunities pop up by Sept 08. Chat Icon

Re: Job Seekers: Subbing length

I graduated with my Masters in December 2000, I subbed from Jan-June then I got a perm. sub position for 2001-2002 and stayed in the position (while still sending out my resume elsewhere) for 2002-2003 and when summer 2003 rolled around and I still didn't have a job I moved to VA and got a job for that fall, and I have been teaching since....2 and 1/2 years subbing was way to long for me, I love where I am but if I could get a job on LI I would be back on LI in a heartbeat because I miss my family and friends terribly....

I just signed up for the next NYPD exam....... :(

I don't want to do it, but I have to.

I can't live like this anymore.

Re: Job Seekers: Subbing length

I know my husband is in the same boat as you guys!!!

He Graduated in Dec. 06 got a subbing job in 2 districts.
Now is got perm sub in March with one of the school district that he loves and did his student teaching in and hopefully Sept they will at least call him back as a Perm Sub then pray for Sept 08 opening.

If not then we will see about relocating down to were our house is in South Carolina.
