Sorry at time of posting neither of your guys had gone yet. 

I'm glad you like Gonzalez's landing spot. I am of course a big fan and my wife is also Columbian.

Oh yeah I was having fun with it in discord. But truly I’ve learned it’s about where they go and not when they go.

Gave my principals a heads up that I’ll likely be accepting a job this summer outside of education, just because I know they’re working on scheduling for next year and I don’t want them to waste their time.

They responded by transferring me to the middle school effective in the fall.

I still stand by my decision as I’d feel terrible if it happened to another coworker, but yeah, up since 2:00AM trying to digest this.

Wait, but if you're leaving in the summer then why does it matter that they transferred you to middle school starting in the fall?

Long story short, I haven't made it "official" yet, and my final paperwork has not come through yet. So, on the off chance that it falls through (unlikely but not a done deal yet), I'm going to be stuck in a much worse situation...so I am really hoping things pan out.

Oh, I see. That sucks, I can't imagine my admin doing that. Hope everything works out.

I don't fault that one bit either. Since (read below) someone was going to be leaving, I would have felt legitimately badly for any of my coworkers, so I just personally couldn't stomach it, but in hindsight maybe I shouldn't have said anything at all and then dropped a proverbial bomb on them in a few weeks headed into the summer.

I don't fault them. We were told that we're losing a position to the middle schools due to their enrollment being through the roof. They're in a tough spot. Since I'm one of the only people certified to teach college courses, I could have/would have stayed here as long as I want(ed) to. I save them thousands if not more each year.
