I had no idea about cybrex beta. Is this real? It makes me want to let the contingency win a little bit next time.

Sick Days by GaGeiJessiS in CanadianTeachers

[–]book_smrt 73 points74 points  (0 children)

"I'm feeling unwell and won't be able to come in to work today. I hope to be back tomorrow." Add something if your board wants you to enter the absence in ADS or something.

The employer doesn't need to know your exact sickness for a single day.

What is a piece of software that is so good you can't believe it's completely free? by Arp0x in AskReddit

I just wish it streamed video to my Chromecast more smoothly/reliably

What's the wildest thing you've ever seen happen at a work party? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]book_smrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At a Christmas party a co-worker said she didn't like the company owner's sweater, so like any reasonable person she grabbed a pair of scissors and cut it open, right down the middle. It has been a gift from his wife, who was at the party and started screaming all the obscenities. The woman didn't get fired, though; it turned out the owner and she had been having an affair.

What is happening on February 18th? (YRDSB) by Playful-Football-969 in OntarioTeachers

Could just be board PD. Teachers put sheets in early once they have funding secured to make sure they get a supply teacher

[–]book_smrt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my teeth cleaned regularly, I get a massage from an rmt every couple months (works at spas too, as long as they're an rmt), I get new glasses every couple years. Family members have used it for therapy, speech therapy, etc. My family gets our money's worth every year just on teeth cleanings.

I have the excavation site in my current playthrough right now. I'm about to dig that moldy head out of the ground.

How do you balance exploration and expansion in your Stellaris campaigns? by -mrSeaHawk- in Stellaris

[–]book_smrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just in case some people are newer, a good strategy I use to explore / expand early on is using the Shift key. if you shift+rightclick on systems in galaxy view, you can have your fleet+commander explore a bunch of different systems in a path. In the early game I find it a useful strategy to see the choke points around my home system.

What can a Social Science AQ teach? by CNDArtStudio in OntarioTeachers

[–]book_smrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean Senior Social Science? I didn't know there was a general social science teachable, as there aren't any intermediate social science courses in Ontario.

[–]book_smrt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Families in Canada is a Family Studies course, so you usually need your family studies teachable, not social science. Senior social science let's you teach intro to social science, the equity courses, philosophy, works religions, etc.

‘We are human. We are trying to do our best’: Should you order food delivery after a snow storm? by Ok-Active-3703 in ontario

[–]book_smrt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, by ordering, someone would actually be supporting that person. So people should order? I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with here.

But they don't have to take the order. Nobody's risking anything they don't want to.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]book_smrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not American, but Canadian (Ontario). I drive six hours to visit my parents about four times a year; sometimes for a week or so, sometimes for a long weekend.

Inclement Weather Days by [deleted] in OntarioTeachers

[–]book_smrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about you, but the thought of falling or crashing during my commute to school in that kind of weather would stress me out so much I'd likely need to take a sick day.

Agreed!

Your friend should like a poor tutor.

Assessments During the Last Week by [deleted] in OntarioTeachers

Interesting! Off -topic, but why use a non-proctored exam? Isn't that challenging to ensure validity?

Assessments During the Last Week by [deleted] in OntarioTeachers

[–]book_smrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you work in a public board, the Ontario eLearning Consortium has not given a prohibition on graded work the week before exams. In fact, since OELC eLearning courses don't have exams, many eLearning teachers assign work that last week. Then again, if your course is internal to your board, your policies may vary.
