The beginning of the end


We are two days into the semester.

Two measly days.

I have only one syllabus ready.

I have already threatened IT. Twice.

Now I am preparing to throw my office computer out the window. Which I do not have. My office is a store room, comfy and cozy (with nice furniture and all), but no OUTSIDE window.

What wonders would the snow not have done to the beast.

  1. I'm with you, brother/sister...

    Hey, could you give yourself a name so we know what to call you?

    Welcome!

  2. One week into the semester here. 9 classes down, 80 to go...

    I know, it's too soon to start counting, but I find it perversely reassuring.

  3. Ack - I still have 2 weeks of vacation. I should stay out of here before I waste the last 10 days with premature anxiety. There will be a full 15 weeks for that when the time comes.

    Welcome!

  4. Well, we online adjuncts don't have semesters and breaks, but if it is any consolation, over the past two days I have had two reasons to be enraged at my employer. It's all carrots and sticks, except the part about the carrots.
