rae 5:19pm

shadylady 6:19pm
Yep; posted.
earldebuke 6:23pm

earldebuke 6:47pm

earldebuke 6:47pm
zoom
catnik 6:50pm
ok
robinrahne 8:49pm
Hey, y'all.
catnik 8:50pm
hihi
catnik 8:50pm
I am irrationally salty at a FB friend-of-a-friend
catnik 8:51pm
but then, I am stressed because of work
catnik 8:51pm
My chair quit
robinrahne 8:52pm
...that could be a furniture malfunction or a staffing problem.
shadylady 8:52pm
What she said.
shadylady 8:53pm
THERE she is.
catnik 8:53pm
staffing
shadylady 8:53pm
BrekkeP, interested in picking up in ER?
catnik 8:53pm
this leaves us without our "boss" and also without our buffer/advocate with admin
catnik 8:53pm
and lots of other issues
catnik 8:53pm
and we are, frankly, too small and lack redundancy to pull a chair from our ranks
catnik 8:54pm
catnik 8:54pm
Fuck that James guy
robinrahne 8:54pm
Weird, why is my Slack not notifying....?
catnik 8:55pm
I take my teaching very seriously, and fuck all these people for ragging on me for saying the real world ain't gonna forgive you for having shit time management
catnik 8:55pm
Theatre especially
robinrahne 8:55pm
Shady, that's an affirmative, but gimme just a minute.
robinrahne 8:55pm
Catnik, I can't see the content of that link. Screenshot?
catnik 9:00pm
shadylady 9:00pm
WELL PUT, CAT.
shadylady 9:01pm
The curtain does NOT go up late because YOU were late.
catnik 9:01pm
catnik 9:02pm
Fuck off, dude, I deal with ADHD shit too, but I am prepping my kids to survive. And one thing they absolutely NEED is resilience and "safe failures"
catnik 9:03pm
And some of my kids are lazy fucks who earn their Fs.
shadylady 9:03pm
And DEAR GOD, ESPECIALLY in THEATRE.
robinrahne 9:04pm
Seriously. I think 50% off for one day late is an extreme, but yeah, deadlines are a thing.
catnik 9:04pm
Yeah - I agreed that that was extreme
catnik 9:04pm
but by damn, I will give them consequences for missing deadlines
earldebuke 9:05pm
Oh my
catnik 9:05pm
Especially right now, post covid, where they've lost a ton of discipline because deadlines meant nothing, and everything was P/F
earldebuke 9:05pm
Yeah, you can't not show up and tell the audiance maybe tomorrow
catnik 9:05pm
Correct
catnik 9:06pm
Theatre works on incredibly tight schedules with very firm deadlines
catnik 9:06pm
often, you are juggling multiple projects
robinrahne 9:06pm
I've gone very marshmallow-y this year regarding late grades. Next year, The Bitch Is Back.
catnik 9:07pm
I don't lack compassion, but sometimes they need a kick in the ass
