I would/will do the same. Except I’m an adjunct; I effectively get re-hired every semester. And I’m ready to retire from my part-time job anyway.“Professor Bernstein said, ‘That's it. I’m retired,’ and we watched him pack all of his papers into his bag and walk out of the classroom.” Absolute legend. https://t.co/n3co3zpXBO via @redandblack

So long as the red death is running rampant, if I can only get lecture (v. online) classes, I just won’t take them.
I gotta quit sooner or later anyway.
Never thought there was an advantage to being an adjunct. Of course, now I’ll never be a legend. OTOH, I accepted that a long time ago.
I'm expecting there is going to be another shut down of in school learning again and before Thanksgiving. I'm afraid to look at the literature because some of what I saw the last time I looked was too scary for getting six hours of sleep.
ReplyDeleteI think a severe backlash against anti-vaxx-mask jerks is necessary for the continuation of anything like a normal life. I think this is going to be a lot more like the Black Death than the flu pandemic of 1918-20. New variants, rampant arrogant, selfish and willful idiocy caused by the media freed of moral responsibility, a deadly combination.
