Don't know whether to say it toom two years or two months but I'm OUT

Two years, I was done with being in the classroom and started looking into other types of teaching positions: library media, esol, resource, etc. I had done 5 years in elementary and 3 years in middle school. I moved to special ed, then agreed to move back to Gen Ed, took a leave of absence to finish coursework, placed in special ed, moved back to elementary. Finally said "fuck this" and took a medical leave to run my sick days out after winter break while buckling down on job applications. Now as my medical leave is coming up on the end - I got a new job outside teaching. There's hope yet!
