I know how frustrating looking for a job is! Until recently, I was without a job I could really even stand...but luckily I have jobs I like now.

My piano teaching job was sheer luck- and years of piano lessons. But, there are plenty of people who are just as good as I am, but I happened to respond to my bosses ad first, and she liked me. I'm very happy with it- I make a good wage, and it's fun.

I got my teaching assistant job by being very over-qualified. I already have my degree and I'm getting a master's in education. But I work at a private school and everyone there is over-qualified. I guess I'm just willing to work there for experience more than pay. But the teacher I work with is wonderful, and I'm learning quite a lot from her.
