Yes, this happened around 2009-2010 when there was quite the recession in CA for teachers. Many tenured and tenure track teachers were pink slipped and then told they could stay on as substitute teaching staff. They would be placed at the head of the line before ALL substitute teachers to take all of the sub jobs. This is when I jumped ship and went to a corporate job for 5 years. I am now attempting to return and it's gone very well so far. Good luck to you!
