hermoine and En sit behind a battered desk in a cluttered office. En has a clipboard, a pen behind each ear, a pen in his overalls pocket, and a pen clipped to the collar of his shirt, but, absorbed in studying the papers on the clipboard, he appears to have forgotten that he has pens, because what he says is:
Zeph, have you seen my pen?
You have entered the Employment Office, and you see that, on the rear wall, there is a conspicuous sign.
NOW HIRING TEACHERS Teachers are needed for the Classes board. You may apply for multiple classes, but be aware that, because pay in galleons is involved, you will need to be active in recruiting students, inventing activities, and keeping the class moving forward.
Have a seat; there's some really sludgy coffee in the pot behind you if you want it. And now: let the applications begin.

*passes En a multi-coloured pen* It's always good to carry a pen with you. You never know when you'll have to write ideas on some tissue paper.
*she then gets up and puts up a list on the Notice Board reading*The following positions are open for those seeking employment

Hello i'm looking for employment.
Looks at the list. Could i teach muggle studies with an element of muggle history or wouldn't this be possible?
Takes the sludgy coffee gratefully.

*looks up* Why hello there Natz! I am glad you wish to apply.
Well for Muggle Studies you can teach any aspect of the Muggle World you like basically, so yes of course you can teach Muggle History. You are welcome to manage your class in the way you see most fitting, and I'm sure your class will not get bored.
Now where was that application form? *rummages around the sticky notes*

Thanks hermoine. Gives hermoine a tin of greek coffee as a present. You can use that instead of the sludgy coffee you have at the moment.
how do i start to manage the class in the thread which is already ongoing?
Try looking under that pile of books on the floor. Thats where my forms always end up.

Whoo im excited.
Would we need planned lessons?
i would like to apply for one or two out of these three:
Potions Master/Mistress Flying Teacher Astronomy Teacher
Any of these three classes would be fine with me, i would not be interested in more than two though.
Are all of the old threads going to be locked and the next ones started new?
EDIT
Would astronomy be like real stuff, learning about planets and all that,because im taking an astronomy class in the fall , or is it astrology, like the zodiak and stuff like that ?

*carefully removes a sticky note from the end of hir nose and looks at it in mild disbelief*
We'll leave the current classes open for a bit to let people finish up whatever they've got to say, but as the classes end and we hire teachers, we'll be replacing the current threads.
I think an element of Muggle History would be grand, Natz. And I'm impressed that you already have ideas for the class. *makes a mark on a clipboard*
Now we should clarify that there is a performance requirement here. We would be checking the classes each week to make sure that there are new posts in each class - and not double posts or bumps either. The object of hiring people is to get people who believe they can keep the classes moving. Understood?

So every week we would be examined. So the aim is to keep the board more active.
Would it be possible to do some muggle fieldwork for the muggle studies class?
Makes everyone a greek coffee and hands it round with a glass of water.
What are bumps?

*she first turns to Lina* I never actually got the difference, but yes that is what an Astronomy Class should cover.
It would be preferable if you chose one single subject for now, but if your other preferences aren't filled, and you'd still like to take another class, then we'll be sure to contact you.
*decides to taste coffee* Oh! Muchos exquisito Natz!
Nope. It's your class my dear, so you are in charge of deciding what your class should learn. Thus, it can be any period of your choice.
Also, bumps are when you double-post, but it isn't Spamming because there's more than a 24hr gap between your posts, yet you have to post again because you have something new to say and nobody has replied to your last post.

I'd thought it be a welcome change from the sludgy coffee you have in here.
Why is it that in offices and when you go to interviews they always give you a horrible coffee.
Astrology is fortune telling of the star sign you were born under such as capricorn, aquarius, cancer, scorpio and a few others.
Apparently the greeks used the sediment at the bottom of the coffee to fortune tell.
Oh that makes sense.

*checks a list* Unfortunately I have already had a person asking me for that post, but I will check and see if he still wishes to take it.
Is there any other subject which might interest you?
Sorry about this, but I can't ignore what someone may have said, even if in the end, they decline the offer.

it would be so weird to have a non slyth potions master
i will take astronomy then i guess, i have a few books here,a nd i will be taking a class in uni maybe i can learn something a little useful
One thing i would like to know, are the teachers that have classes going to be made mods of the classroom board?

I can assure you Lina, Wiz can be bad though. He threatened to put on us the worst punishment he could think of...besides it isn't necessary that whoever gets the post of Potions Master acts like Snape. As strange as it may Snape, I have actually attended a Potions class where the teacher gave out cookies and made us all sing muggle songs for her first lesson. Plus, every loves her class. So perhaps a change would be good sometimes.
*taps her the rubber-end of her pencil on a small notepad, and looks up back at Li*
We have thought about that, and have decided that no, the teachers won't be Mods, but if any serious matter arises in class, the teacher can inform either En, or me, or any of the DH's which might be around at that moment.
