Liam and I did derivatives tonight in preparation for his calculus test tomorrow. He knows it cold but the answers can get quite convoluted sometimes so he’ll have to be careful.
We worked on his “in class essay” earlier in the week. 5 potential essay topics assigned. We worked for hours to prepare. Yesterday he wrote the essay. Apparently the teacher decided that he’d give them a new topic rather than the ones he’d asked them to study. Given how hard Liam worked to prepare, I must say that I am disappointed that what he studied was not directly part of the exercise. An inexcusable breach of trust really. A man’s word should be his bond, especially when setting an example for students.
Is it acceptable to blog about your place of work? Short answer….NO. The number of cases of people fired for what they said about their employers continues to mount.
In my case I steer away from anything more than an oblique reference to my job. It’s as much a question of keeping my work and home lives separate as it is about not pissing off my corporate masters.
This month we are in shutdown mode at the plant so we work longer hours and weekends. What falls off the schedule to compensate? Well so far
- Breakfast
- Jiu Jitsu
- Laundry
- Cardboard recycling apparently
- Workouts
- Writing
- Sleep
The essentials that are still happening:
- Homework assistance
