unfortunately it would be a 100 mile round trip drive for me every day :( A friend of mine who graduated the year before me took a job as the head athletic trainer at a small college outside of Philadelphia last year. Apparently she was the only athletic trainer employed by the school (normally a school that size would have 2-4 or at least a few GA's) so she was swamped. They were actively looking for an assistant this summer but wanted to hire someone with a masters, when nobody wanted the job they extended it to anyone with certification (thats me). She contacted my ex-roommate about it and asked if she knew anyone who would be interested and my roommate gave her my e-mail.
I'm guessing she will contact me some time this week about it. It would be a tempting offer if she wanted to give me the job (basically if I wanted it, I would get it...we were pretty good friends back in college...unless it's already been filled) but I'm not sure I would want to deal with that commute every day, that and I would only want a 1 year contract since I plan on going to grad school in the fall. It would make little sense financially for me to move all the way out there for only a year because I'm guessing the assistant pay isn't going to be a ton. But on the other hand I would be actually doing something I love for this year as opposed to working as a substitute teacher which is something I'm not looking forward to.
But who knows maybe someone already accepted the job or they want more than a 1 year commitment and I'm going crazy for no reason. I figured I had to tell somebody because I don't want to say anything to my family until I know more.
