We have yet another PD day on Thursday because the students are off for Yom Kippur but not the staff. Literally the PD offerings for us are lame. I always say DON'T WASTE MY TIME. What piqued my interest today when the schedule was sent out was that we had 8-11am meetings. Lunch is 11-12 and then we have virtual meetings from 12-2. I debated about asking an assistant principal about it and just went for it. I asked him when I saw him in the hall if that meant I could leave the building at 11 and then log in from here at noon since those presentations are going to be virtual. He thought about it and said yes. WOOHOO. I'd much rather just get it done virtually from here. Don't make me sit there doing virtual trainings. Hey the cats miss me.

I don’t think students here get time off for religions other than Christian, but I could be wrong? I heard Trump wanted to scrap all ‘work from homers’ and get everybody back in the office. Is it not happening there?

@NJChicaa I thought he was in charge of everything, including the rest of the world.

Yes, the cats have priority over some stoopid virtual meeting.

Sounds sensible to me. What's the point of going in just to sit through a virtual meeting?
