Ethics are so....

Hard to live with. It's not really a secret that I'd love to have a job closer to my friends and family. I hate having to drive 5 hours just to visit the people I love. Tonight a friend of Mom's called to tell me she's just posted an alt ed job at my old high school. And I had to thank her very much, and know that I had an opportunity I couldn't take because school starts in two weeks and I've given my word, via my signed contract, that I will be there. Sometimes I wish I didn't have such a sense of responsibility.
