I thought it would be fun to apply for the vacant school board position. I assumed nobody else would apply, and it would just consist of a little meet and greet with the other board members and they'd shoo me in.
Well I was one of three and the interview consisted of them asking me these fucking in-depth questions about what I know about charter schools.
?
I know absofuckinglutely nothing about charter schools. A desire to learn more is why I want to be on the school board. I want to be on the school board because it will force me to learn and participate. I will attend school board meetings if I'm a member and I have to.
So they told me to wait by the phone because they'll call right after the last interview, and they want the "winner" to return to the school tonight. I mean, I know I didn't get it, but they told me to wait, so I am.
My interview was a disaster. I don't know anything about charter schools. What little I do know I was not about to put on display, better to play dumb. But you can't tell me any of the people on the board (and I know all but two of them) knew ANYTHING about charter schools when they got on.
"How do you think this school compares to other schools."
WTF? I'm 46 years old, how much time do you think I spend hanging in grade schools?
And they told me three times that there was going to be another opening soon, so to keep that in mind. So why tell me to wait by the phone??????? Why not just tell me, go home, we'll call and let you know.....
