NO CANCER! Benign!
Phew! Yay! Exhale!
Awesome news!
Yay Pix!
Yay no cancer!
Well, I found out that my coworker who has Covid is not being counted in the official count of faculty who have Covid. Her test result form didn't have her date of birth on it, and so they wouldn't record it. The form was from the university testing facility. The number of students being reported doesn't even remotely line up with the number of students that all of us are hearing from, telling us that they tested positive and have to quarantine. These numbers are such bullshit.
I feel like I should not be surprised by that, Hil, but I am flabbergasted
Yay Pix!
Hil, I think the University systems are just breaking under this weight. It is really frustrating. We in instructional design are getting pushback from IT about the labor involved in recording lectures for students in quarantine. Which I understand, because everyone is just tired from showing up and going above and beyond our job descriptions. By the time we get the “accommodation” for quarantine approved, it will be beyond the time frame for the lecture to be recorded, because it will hav happened in the past. I am just amazed at the number of times I am suggesting time machine as a solution.
YAY no Cancer
Boooo not recording Covid cases correctly.
Coffee is gross. I will continue to love my Diet Coke and iced tea.
The vending guy who comes started putting only 1 row of diet cokes in the machine (we now have 1 machine with all the drinks instead of a separate Pepsi and Coke machine), I stopped him Monday and asked why he swtiched from 2 rows to 1 and he said we weren't buying enough. So now the one row goes empty before he can fill it up. He also doesn't turn the drinks front facing so there are some new ones no one is sure what they are since we can't see.
And he put 1 Viatmin Water in front of lemon lime gatorade and people want the lemon lime gatorade but no one wants to buy the Vitamin water to get to them. And someone asked him to take out the Vitamin water and he forgot.
Hooray, Pix!
