Bureacratic SNAFU
I received a phone call today at 5:30 from HR telling me that I do not have a license, and would I please call them. When I was hired I specifically asked what I needed to do in terms of my transitional license. I was told I did not need to do anything. I asked twice, but was not told of anything I needed to do since my fingerprints were already on file with the Teachers Standards and Practices Commission (TSPC). Today I was told that I need to send them a form, all of my transcripts and a $100 license fee. Also I needed to pay $99 to get it expedited. This is frustrating. I already requested all of my transcripts for HR and it would have been very easy to request an additional copy for TSPC. Also one of my Universities (Marylhurst) does not do overnight delivery. So that one will take 5-7 days, unless they respond nicely when I call. This also means I need to have a sub in my room until I get the license. Under the contract, this sub would come out of my pay. I have convinced HR that since this week is only orientation and I do not have an advisory, all I am doing is prepping, so I do not need a sub until Monday. This means I have until Monday morning to get my license. There is a very good chance I may be driving to Salem tomorrow. We will see.
