I just woke up. I woke to the news there was a phone call for me. The person on the other end turned out to be my supervisor from the industry placement I had recently completed, the teacher-librarian for that school.
What she wanted was to know if I would be willing and able to come in on the 23rd and fill in for someone else, if I could come in this week and fill out some forms so they could pay me.
I said yes.
Never before have I been offered work. The little I have done (other contexts, other years) I was not paid for. And once those papers are processed I will be able to work more easily in the Catholic education system in NSW. I've never been in a position like this before.
Between yesterday and today I am feeling overwhelmed.
