You're not enthusiastic around adults...

I'm a teacher.  A teacher of children.

This was my response when I was rejected for a job that I was interviewed for today.

"You're not enthusiastic around adults.."

I'm sorry.  I mistook the point of a Primary school teacher.  To be enthusiastic around children.  Did I have to be enthusiastic around adults?!  Do they need to be inspired by me?

To be quite honest, I was full on smiley and happy and engaging in conversation...if I'm still getting accused of not having the personality then that is a MASSIVE insult.

Me and teaching are over.  I don't need the nit picking.  I don't need the bringing down.  The lack of praise.  The long hours.

New job starts this summer!
