Wish Me Luck

Wow! Time flies by so fast. I did not notice that I was not here for 3 days. A few days ago, I received a message from a fellow asking if I would like to try working as a Kindergarten assistant. I told her I would not think twice if I had apostilled credentials (diploma, transcript of records, and the like). I am a college graduate with a post-baccalaureate degree and hold a professional teacher's license. Still, for the reason I mentioned, the Ministry of Korean Education disqualifies me. Crap. Then yesterday I received a private message asking if I could cover for a teacher. I declined. My daughter would have been brokenhearted if I had canceled our bonding time. The surprise of all surprises came when the fellow instead asked me to send my resume to the Kindergarten director. Before I knew it, I was being interviewed via Zoom. Before she ended the interview, she mentioned my salary and all that jazz. And at around half-past 6 pm (the interview happened around 3 p.m.), she told me to come to school by 10 a.m. on Friday. Everything happened so fast.
