So I went on my first interview last Friday... overall the situation was pretty good. The only bad this was that sticky question about why my contract wasn't being renewed. "Because my boss doesn't like me" didn't sound that keen, so I went with the re-organization angle. I said she's a new director and is dissolving my position - farming out my schools to another manager, commodity processing to a classified employee, and going with Assisted NuMenus (meaning an outside company plans them.) The Child Nutrition director made the comment, "That seems really odd that they would get rid of YOUR position..." Gee, because I'm the only registered dietitian in the district and we have to have a Wellness Program for next year? Hmmmm, could be!
I'm sending out emails left and right, and contacting everyone I know in school foodservice. I don't want to go to food sales or anything, so I guess I'm pretty picky at the moment. If something doesn't materialize soon, I may put off the full-scale job seeking efforts until after I get back from South America.
Well, it's hot here - 105 today - and we're all trying not to melt. I'm gonna post some pics and catch y'all later.
Peace out,
J
