Oh May 15th how you loom for pink-slipped teachers.  Will our pink slips be rescinded?  Will we receive confirmation that our "services will not be required?"  The negotiations teams have been meeting through all hours of the day and night, is progress being made?  Can my job be saved?  What about my salary?  Oh school board, what will you decide tonight?  Shall I attend the meeting?  Can my nerves handle that?  My curiousity may compel me...

UPDATE... I am curious no longer.  Went to the meeting.  The board approved a resolution to officially confirm all pink slipped teachers.  There is still hope (the negotiations team was meeting during the board meeting), but to be honest... I will continue my job search regardless.  It is in my family's best interest.
After Meeting "Snack" - Large glass of red wine, slice of bread with butter, two bites of a beef skewer.
