Just Popping In

November 15th, 2012 at 03:57 am

Eeeks, it's been a long time since I've blogged. Teaching the dread overload of classes has meant nothing optional has been accomplished in months, and by optional I mean completely putting the summer sandals away, anything beyond minimal cleaning, no filing, planning, or adequate sleep.

But I'm finally feeling good about the semester, and I'll be caught up with grading over Thanksgiving. The study abroad meetings have also eaten a lot of time, but I won't complain about them.

Only one piece of bad news: the "expletive deleted" university STILL hasn't paid me for one class. Nothing. I've kicked up a fuss, told them it was illegal, enraged a half dozen people, and considered filing a grievance. Will they pay for for three months work in December? Grrr.

I'll try to be back more soon; I miss you guys!

    Yes...file that grievance. There is no reason for it to go on this long! Miss hearing from you, too.

    How in the world are they going on THIS long without paying you?! That is shocking, and it definitely should lead to a grievance, at the very least. When you sign on to teach you deserve the insurance that the university (it's a UNIVERSITY, for crying out loud) will be competent enough to manage payroll. It's not like you are working for some shady, unstable little corner shop, or something. (Not that all corner shops are shady or unstable, I hasten to add... Smile )
    Good luck with the chuckleheads at the payroll office!
