For me, I think the sacrifices are minimal compared to the opportunity. A friend was hired for something he did not want to teach, but he eventually got the position he wanted. I was hired for the position I wanted, but I was scheduled to interview for a 1st grade position which would have killed me. Still, I would have done it in a heartbeat to ge...See More
