Professional Suicide

Posted on June 13, 2007 By Tom No Comments on Professional Suicide
Rants

I got the following e-mail today…

I’m thinking about leaving Xxxxxxxxx School District.  Do any of you have positions available using the xxxxxx software system?

If you haven’t guessed, this was sent to a state-wide listserv.  It’s also tantamount to professional suicide.  I don’t think I would have sent something like this out unless I were absolutely sure I would be leaving xxxxxx School District.

Who knows?  It could be that the person in question is absolutely fabulous, but in the midst of a divorce, or that there are other external factors making it necessary for them to leave.  However, that information wasn’t provided in the e-mail.  We (and her potential employers) are only left with the impression that they are not happy, and just want out. I certainly wouldn’t recommend anything on the basis of this e-mail.
