I don't think I'm cut out for being the big boss or high pressure situations. We are in a situation where we need to hire a teacher. Two left in December, and all of our schools are up and running this month. We interviewed two candidates this week. One was perfect: past teaching experience, training in classroom management, wanted to become a teacher. The other has the dynamic personality, but we have reservations about his classroom management ability. I sent an offer over to the former this morning. I haven't heard anything from her yet. I fear we will not be enough for her. That's the pisser of it all: the best candidates are already working and teaching. The rest have been marginal, at best. I could barely understand three applicants. Several more never returned my calls. And more still had zero skills related to what we do and were just applying to anything and everything. I want this candidate to accept. Every second that passes is adding to my worry and stress levels.
On the upside, I have been ridiculously productive today, trying not to think about how much time as passed without a response. I guess there is a silver lining in all situations.
