Sounds like it was a decent hit, Bains. Good to hear you're okay mostly.

Did he go through a red light or a stop sign or something?

It was either a stop sign or give way. He claims didn't see me, but it was middle of the day and I drove a red corolla, so I am tipping he didn't even look left at the intersection

..just some rich guy who thinks he owns the road. I live (and work) at a posh school and I see heaps of them all the time. The way they park.... Annoys me.

I do relief, so I teach prep to 12. Most people don't like it but I think it's awesome: no marking, report cards, lesson plans.. I leave at 3 every day!

Might explain why he didn't see you. :p

Glad you're ok mate, there's way too many idiots on the road.

I have a couple of friends who went straight into relief after uni. Did you do the same or go from classroom teacher into relief?

Personally, I love watching students improve throughout the course of the year. As a parent of 4 (5 if you include my 20 yr old step-son) I also enjoy the security a permanent position provides, especiaqlly sick leave (would kill me with my young ones if I didn't have sick leave available).

Mind you, over here in the west relief staff get plenty of work and had I chosen to do relief I would have survived. The daily rate for a relief teacher continues to rise and is pretty decent now.

Anyway, good to know that we chalkies are well represented in BB... :-)

Yeah there are quite a few of us.

The day I start getting less than 4 days a week on average (I haven't had a day off for about 5 months), then I'll start looking at full time. But, until then, the money is too good and the hours are amazing.

I'll be moving west next year, hopefully. I hear the money is better there than in QLD.
