getting offered your old job
so i loved coaching. even the days where i felt like pulling out my hair, inside i loved it. this summer i was stripped of my job. it was awful and i was upset and offended, but as bitter as i was, i couldnt stay away. i still visited some practices, came out to some swim meets. even went to the agm.
so tonight i received an email, offering me the same job. saying they want me back. i still have alot of resentment towards some members of the executive, but thats not why i coach. i coach for the kids, and i saw what they didnt get this year. i want to be able to give them everything i did in the past - swimmer of the week, board of stars, listing how many seconds they have taken off individually and as a team, and so on. working with kids gives you soooooo much, its like stealing.
i'm going to take the job. my feelings are still mixed at the moment, but i'd kick myself if i didnt take it. i love the kids, i love the job, i love the atmosphere.
