Job Hunt Drama (?)

So today was an exciting and interesting day: I had an interview at another school (school P) this morning to be a teaching assistant in an MOID classroom, and I felt that the interview went really well. I really liked the principal and staff, and the principals office was full of awesome comic book paraphernalia, so I was immediately at ease and thought to myself, "Yes, this school."

However, I had no sooner left the interview when the school who had rejected me earlier in the week  (school W) called. Instead of a secretary as I was expecting, it was the principal; she wanted me to come and see her within the next 20 minutes. Another position was opening and she wanted to talk to me again about working there. When I arrived, she essentially said I had been one of the worst applicants she had ever interviewed, which was a downer. After going over my interview guffaws with me, she went on to say that she wanted to take a chance on hiring me, and offered me a position as a teaching assistant in one of their kindergarten classrooms.

Here's where the drama begins. As I was on my way to get my transcripts and head over to HR to be processed into the school district, the OTHER school called me back and said they were eager to hire me. I had missed the call, so I had the opportunity to mull over the two and make my decision. First I called my mom who was at work and couldn't really give an opinion; then I called my boyfriend to ask what he thought and got the time/distance/pay spiel I knew I was getting. All of my teacher friends were (duh) teaching, so I couldn't ask them. I called my department advisor and asked for her opinion; she helped me weigh the pro's and con's, and told me that she thought I would do best in the kindergarten classroom. So I called back to tell school P that I had already accepted a position at another school just before they called. They said they were sad the had missed the chance, and wished me good luck. Then called back twice just to make sure.
