To resign or not to resign...

I had a long day today...

I was preparing to go to work when I decided that I'd push through my plan of resigning. I realized that I don't have a security of employment (tenure) since I didn't sign any contract. All we had was a verbal agreement. I even called up my mom to inform her about this. She agreed that I should resign immediately.

It's not that I don't trust her... But I just remembered what happened to my co-teacher a month ago. My boss abruptly terminated her, without any warning or written memo of the offense/s that she had done. It's not that I'm being ungrateful because she appreciated my hardwork. But my point is, she did it once; she could do it again anytime that she wanted to.

It may sound weird... but everytime she's interviewing a teacher applicant (for the teacher aid post), thoughts like "Oh my, am I going to be replaced/terminated now?" run through my mind. I just couldn't take off my mind what my boss did to my former co-teacher.

And so, I prepared my resignation letter, transcript of record, L.E.T. Rating, and resume.

I intently ignored my boss's phone calls (in my mobile and landline) and text messages.

I wanted to surprise her... Bulaga! I'm leaving you for good!

I even informed my boyfriend about this. I told him that I'm not happy with what's happening at my workplace. And being the good boyfriend that he is, he supported my decision.

So what happened??

My boss didn't accept my resignation. She told me that if I couldn't handle the teacher post, she would make me the assistant teacher. I wouldn't have to stay eight hours at work. I'd be working for about three and a half hours only. Oh well, I accepted her offer. I just hope that this time I won't be stressed anymore... So, tomorrow, I'm going to look for a tutorial center and apply as a part time tutor...

I do hope things would get better tomorrow.

I'm really looking forward to it.

For tomorrow marks a new month... :)

And I definitely want to start the new month right...
