I guess I really am that wishy washy and therefore not really made to be cutthroat. On Friday one of my newer coworkers got fired. She was neurotic, paranoid, assumed the worse, and just plain didn't understand how to avoid trouble. Even though I had been trying to help her from the beginning it was not enough to keep her accusing me at times of ( Read more... )

The first thought we always have is how do we fix this mess for ourselves. Without the peanut gallery we were able to talk on our own and I realized looking at her that we are exactly the same. Except that I am still considering the possibility of not being a piece of machinery ( Read more... )

But then the big question is when I do I pay for all the fancy dental work I need next? Well if you guys remember I'm missing about 4 teeth in the back. I'm a candidate for implants in the bottom and at ( Read more... )

So I've been working on something I call the textbook reserve project. In the beginning of the summer Andy asked me to beg for textbook donations from faculty to put them on reserve for students. Now we've always had a very small amount of textbooks (mostly supplemental material no one looks at.) but Andy is hoping we achieve a working collection ( Read more... )

So I stumbled upon a degree that has Jen in love. It's Literacy Education. I want to find more concrete info by speaking to a advisor on campus, but it sounds great to me. Essentially you can specialize in ESL or reading teacher. I sort of love the idea of reading teacher. There's also curricula advising and of course special needs/remedial. ( Read more... )

I had paragraphs, now I distill ( Read more... )
