I have especially struggled this semester. I got my first tutor for quantitative economics and for the ACCESS project for my MIS class. I have never used ACCESS and don't have it at home, so essentially I have been trying to listen to a 60 year old man try to explain something via youtube at the library. Lost me in the first video. Posted by brandichamberlain[/QUOTE] Yeah, it's rough. During undergrad, it was easy to just show up and veg out in class if I was tired (hungover) or whatever. But online, the profs knew exactly what posts I'd opened, how long I was on them, etc. It was insane.
That aspect, too, Avs. I lucked out with all my courses except one, thankfully. Nathan had a bunch of issues, though.
The wierd thing is they didnt take anything. The cops think he was going for jewlery. My parents kind of live in the nicer house on the street and breakins have been happened in the general area. All the doors were locked.
Who fucking breaks into a house at 8pm on a thurs night with a car in the driveway not thinking someone is home???
The scary thing is that when he came in the basement he walked by baby toys.
Nates - I've only had two profs that were bad. One was for an Ancient Egypt class who wanted us to learn how to write in hieroglyphs and for our quizzes he'd post a scan of his own writing. Half of it never showed up. I dropped the class. The other one I had was an English class. The class was alright but the prof had links for everything and everywhere. There was like 6 different pages to find out the requirements for the class.

Nebbs, are you feeling better? That's awesome that the Punch Bros are returning. I would love to see them live again. They're very uplifting. If I could molecularly transport you some beer and the Punch Brothers live, I would. Posted by jcbsjr[/QUOTE] Feeling a tad better, but really aprehensive about tomorrow. Long story short, lard ass complained about me AGAIN today and I finally got fed up and talked to one of my managers about how it is making me feel and how much harder its making my situation and how it is undermining all of the hard work. Putting all the shiit back on her. That went fine but when I talked to another manager after to make sure the owner knows Ive been putting so much extra time he said he did but had questioned since all this has happened if I really want to be there. Ive never been questioned on that before, not until this hag started complaining about me. Apparently I get to have an informal review tomorrow to discuss things tomorrow. Im so bloody excited.
That whore is the owners MOM. Which makes it all the more difficult. Im taking on a bunch of tasks that were hers and she is NOT impressed with my lack of dropping everything whenever she wants to go over something. She refuses to beleive I am busy and if I ask if we can do something in a bit because Im doing something, she complains as if I just flat out said no. My two managers see it and get it and know how busy I am but I dont really know how much of it the owner is actually taking in. I was talking to his wife (who ALSO works for the company) the other day how I was using my morning to work on one department and then using the afternoon to work on the new stuff and she told me that was unrealistic and I needed to start devoting more time to the new stuff. They just dont have any clue how busy I am, its pretty clear.
very true. Im ready to come out guns blazing to defend myself. Im not just letting her pull this shiit on me and get away with it. Im just concerned that now that my boss has the "seed of doubt" in his mind, that he will start viewing everything I do as "not wanting to be there". Shes pretty much effed things up for me and I am NOT happy about that. And with that, Im going to bed since I have to get up an hour earlier than normal so I can go in early to try not to fall behind too much.
sorry, before I go to answer you jcbs, I dont WANT to work elsewhere. I am really close with a number of people there and would hate to not work with them anymore but if I have to, I will leave. I havnt mentioned it but I got an email this week asking me to come in and do testing (day long testing!) for a position I applied to when I was still in limbo and I have until the 24th to say I am not attending so depending on how tomorrow goes, I may just do it.

If you had a preschooler, would you be okay with them having boxes over their feet and racing if they were at school? Like, shoeboxes taped closed and slits cut in the top for their feet? It seems kind of dangerous, but fun for them.
