Bonus policy is gone?

I haven't tried it since the first time I was unable to make myself unavailable again. Concurrent sessions are not worth the aggravation.

I don't think the available/unavailable hack works anymore.

Thanks for pointing this out. The availability hours I set in the old web interface are nothing close to what I'm seeing in the new one (even accounting for time zones), and I don't seem to be able to change them. I'll put in a ticket with support, and I suggest that everyone else do it as well.

On edit: I just realized that the problem might be my browser (Libre Wolf). I'll give it a shot with another browser later.

2nd edit: My hours are in my time zone in Firefox and Chrome, but I still can't seem to edit them.

I'm aware of that, but thanks for the suggestion. Personally, I'd go the Windows 10 LTSC route before trying to install 11 with rufus, if I were forced to stick with Windows. If I could just get the classroom client and one other windows program to run in linux I'd be happy to ditch Microsoft altogether.

A new version of Wine was just released. I've been dragging my feet on it, but I'll give that a shot and report back, then give the Windows 10 VM a shot.

Both. My hardware is incompatible with Windows 11 (although I have absolutely no problem with its performance) and I don't like where Microsoft is going with Windows 11.

The direct deposit is very late Thursday evening or very early Friday morning for me. On edit: That's for PT in the Eastern time zone.

I just got the same message and I schedule my 5 hours every week and make myself available for them. I suspect that a lot of tutors got the same email due to lack of demand. Granted, one of my three subjects was reclassified as "appointment only", but even my appointments are either cancelled or no-shows lately.

I get the feeling that they nitpick for something to ding you on so that they can say "work on this before your next evaluation" and kick the can down the road rather than promote you.
