Officially back on the WFH wagon as of yesterday I am on the payroll (whoo hoo). Yesterday was a freebie day since they had to adapt the onboarding of employee process so my work laptop is supposed to be here by Fedex at 10:30am. then I gotta get it up and running but the company is WFH until May 1 as of right now.
However, I have a letter declaring me "essential worker" since it's IT support that supports making lifesaving drugs so I might need to go to office for something. Im juts glad to be collecting paycheck once again.

Just got my office phone delivered and set up. Just need a hoot and I’ll be 100% set up.

3rd week of Google Classroom for me. No video component, just reading assignments and (mostly) daily written response for students. They're calling it "remote learning" in our district. We just did our first Zoom-based faculty meeting.
I'd way rather be in the classroom with the students, having discussions and looking at the reading together. You know, teaching. I can't complain about the extra sleep or not doing my relatively short (35 minutes each way) commute, but grading work and staring at a screen are my least favorite parts of being a teacher, and it looks like that's all we'll be doing for the rest of the school year.

Plausible deniability
i think your mistaken, proper corona placement would be open, upside down in a sink
(or better yet, left on a shelf in the store, YUCK!)

Feel free to play copy-cat. Oh and leave the Shockwiz with the good beer plz
too long a drive just for that, if this thing had waited another week for work to shutdown (or even another day into the week we got) youd probably have it already

WFH sucks. There are some benefits but I'd rather be seeing my students in person. Just one of their usually easy to answer questions takes so much more time with this "Distance Learning". For me it's literally twice the work of a normal work day. I'm sick of staring at the screen as well. I'm forcing myself to sit and answer questions and get some chores done and check in again. Rinse and repeat and then try to ride my bike when things calm down. I know this will be the new normal for me for a while so I'm trying to get settled in. I went into work the other day to clean out anything I may need for the end of the year. I don't think I'll see my classroom until September at this point.
