New question:  Has anyone ever been fired from a job?  I'll step up 
and admit that I have.  I sure hope I am not the only one to write 
about it, let alone admit it.

One of the reasons I love teaching is that I have the freedom to do as 
I choose in my classroom and I do not have anyone standing over me 
telling me how I am wrong all the time.  When I don't like something I 
have a tendency to let it show on my face.  I am also extremely 
outspoken which can get me in trouble.  I would say, though, that 
having been fired from jobs in the past has made me a much better and 
loyal worker today.  I also really like my principal and assistant 
princiapl, as they trust me and let me do what I do best, which is 
teach.
