Working in education, recently had an incident where the items for a club I was running was robbed from during the school day.
I am not sure what this means. I am the only one running the club that is slated to become a full blown sports team. I am unsure what to do and feel like I did something wrong when I was out on grievance. I am terrified of what is going to happen to me or not. I am a highly anxious and wary person. The items stolen that belonged to the school were game consoles for an E-Sports team. They were in my room, but my closet was raided while grieving a relative during my absence. I am just worried and unsure if I am in trouble or not now that they are asking for the remaining devices to be returned. I am just confused, this has been a one person project, me, lose/lose took half a year to get the equipment, only help from the athletic director. I am just exhausted. I may quit this club because it is a no win situation.

Please wish me luck, or say a prayer for me! I am praying for all of us out there, particularly those of us in our mid-50s searching for a new role in which we can be happy, fulfilled and grow our careers (those of use not close to retirement)!
I am so tired of the rejection and tomorrow's interview seems like such a great position. I am trying hard to stay confident but it is not easy, since I have been rejected for so many roles.

I got a job offer from a large financial institution!
Part of me wants to celebrate and jump up and down, and then the other part of me is cautiously optimistic. The offer is contingent upon a successful background check. I have a misdemeanor back in 2009 when I was young and stupid. This misdemeanor has nothing to do with banking, theft,…

I think you should continue applying for jobs and interviewing as you are not crazy about one of the jobs and it is unclear if you will be offered the other.
If the company less interesting to you offers you a position, you should alert the other hiring manager to let him/her know that they are expecting a response in x days. (No company would expect a response on the spot; it is perfectly reasonable to take time to think about it). If they are truly…

This is terrible, don't take it on yourself as blame. Unfortunately someone took advantage of your absence and stole from the school. Let the authorities know that you were gone on a bereavement and that you know nothing about where these items are. Then make a plea to the community to get them back with no repercussions and perhaps someone will come forward. If not check the local postings say on craigslist to see if someone is selling them online for a profit. You might find out who did the crime.
Move forward and don't give up your hard work.

If they were stolen from your classroom when you weren't even there, it's beyond absurd if you're blamed for it. The school's insurance should cover having them replaced if you can't get the guilty parties to 'fess up and return what they stole. Also have the parents of the kids who enjoy E-sports advocate on your behalf and perhaps donate/do a fundraiser to buy more equipment as well. Are you with a union? If so, call your union rep right away.
