@ Semai99
The position is mostly a subtle Security position. The school is an alternative setting for at risk students. I walk around the Auto Shop and surrounding classrooms and shag kids back to class when they sneak out and help out where needed. I have a BA so I am qualified to be a Substitute Teacher and fill in at any class - campus wide - when the need arises. It is kinda funny because I probably have the least amount of Auto Mechanics/Auto Body Repair knowledge of any member of these forums and yet my title is Teacher Aide - Auto Shop/Substitute.  ;D

@PhillySniper
True but I also have to have drive time 14 hrs  ::) each way. That makes 3 days. If I was really welcome, my friends might actually want me to spend a day just visiting.  ;) so that would be 4 or 5 days. As Coldthunder's car needs a major overhaul it looks like if we are coming I will have to get my wheels in shape for a trip. I make no promises but if wishes are enough I will definitley be there.

@ Everyone
Thanks for the kind words. I hope the School Board is as kind as the Prinicpal and confirms the offer she extended.

Or you could come into 2008 and FLY  ;D
45 min flight means you can leave Friday morning or as late as 6pm and still be here in time for the fun  :D
Might be cheaper than driving with the price of gas.
