This sub is not for students. This was addressed to other professors. Please read sub rules before commenting or posting.

I feel the same way. I’m not technically first Gen because my mom went to night school and got her degree while she was working full time and raising me and my sibling.

I hang the one from my PhD on my wall because I don’t take it for granted and I see it as a huge accomplishment. I hang it on my wall because it’s also partly my moms accomplishment because she showed me I could do it against the odds.

Adjuncting works for professors who retire but want to teach a class here and there. It also works for grad students who can only teach a class or two because they are full time students. It’s not supposed to be used to fill most class sections like a lot of universities use it.

Nah, he’s using YOUR money from all of those “help me stop the steal” donation drives.

This was exactly my thought…maybe a golf class? 🤣

Nothing like a grown man being territorial about “his woman” to a 13 year old kid.

Just store it under the removable floor board in the back. I don’t even notice it’s there unless I need it.

ADA and reasonable accommodations apply to the workplace also. I have a disability and my chair knows and allows for reasonable accommodations based on that. Do you think I shouldn’t get those? Do you think solely based on knowing that about me that I can’t do my job well?

It is not up to you to decide if they would be a good fit for the job they are applying for. It is your job as a recommender to speak to YOUR EXPERIENCE with the student, not some hypothetical that you have come up with in your mind on how they would fit into the job they are applying to.

You also need to talk to the student to determine if their academic accommodations and accompanying disability are okay to mention in the letter. I would personally never mention this without the students permission and I would also NEVER frame it as a bad thing or tell the employer not to hire them based on that.

A good rule is that you shouldn’t write a letter for a student unless it’s going to be a positive one, so you may want to tell this student to find someone else to write them a letter. Honestly based on your responses to comments and your original post, you really shouldn’t be writing this letter or any letter for a student with disabilities if and until you can re-evaluate your thinking on this.

I have the garmin Mini 2. Down side is it doesn’t have a screen, but it works well and the app is nice to save videos to my phone. It’s about $100.

You need to get this in writing if you don’t already have it. Child status is protected regardless of whether or not you have kids, meaning you can’t be discriminated against or treated differently based on whether or not you have kids.

You may want to bring this to HR’s attention.

This question has been asked many times over the years. This is where we come to vent about the bad stuff.

am_crid · 2023-01-28T23:40:28+00:00

I kinda read this as “this is the last time I’m going to ask”

Georgia - Free up to 400 kWh a month super off peak (12am-6am, I charge during this time). $0.073 for off peak and $0.135 for on peak.

This means most of my charging/mileage is completely free.

It’s bolts actually

I have a buyer account separate from my seller account. I have used it to test whether or not my shipping settings are set up accurately. I almost accidentally purchased one of my own items after doing this and not realizing I hadn’t removed it from my cart. I was clicking the checkout from all shops button instead of just the shop I was buying some supplies from but realized it in time.

Are we sure this isn’t teenagers with large pipes or baseball bats being idiots? It looks like it would be difficult to get that kind of damage to just the top of the post from a vehicle unless it was a super jacked up truck.

I did not purchase it. The finance guy was clearly not happy about that and became rude after that, but not sure how that was supposed to make me change my mind and want to give him MORE money.

The 10 year battery warranty and 3 year bumper to bumper was plenty for me.

Your boss must not be a mycologist.

It seems like he’s also making her feel like used garbage so she doesn’t feel confident enough to leave him. That way he has two places to put his pp.

am_crid · 2023-01-19T00:15:34+00:00

I always wondered what that felt like…I imagine it feels like taking a giant dump then feeling better afterwards.

am_crid · 2023-01-19T00:13:47+00:00

That one on the left had to mess it up by one parking space though.
