My husband just texted to tell me he's bored. He's giving his last final of the semester and the students are almost 3 hours in. I would hate to be in his class.

He teaches Calc based Physics I and II, reg Physics I and II, Engineering Statics, and some other class on Dynamics that I can't think of the name. He finished grading everyone else's stuff last night, so he just has to sit there and watch them.

Yeah...even though it doesn't seem like much effort, the bonus is a little underwhelming too

 

[klingeemonster]

Mine hasn't started yet

They sent the email, but it usually takes about 30 minutes for everyone to gather in and I have a missing person in my group, so it takes forever for a round play out.

Especially if you got a bunch of greedy pigs in your group, in all fairness they're probably pissed off at the hit more than anything else, I'm getting kind of cynical myself and I'm thinking about just grabbing what I can get and hoping for it to end.

I still haven't received the email and I went to the site, but it's still on yesterdays. I'll probably end up in another take all day group.

They might have started mine early because we only got six rounds done yesterday, we are supposed to be on Match 3 today and I'm still on Match 2.
