And then

[branchandroot]

So, just when I was thinking it might be safe to, like, breathe, one of my team announces that she will be retiring, not at the end of August, but at the BEGINNING OF JUNE.

Have I mentioned that Umich decided to hold all spring and summer courses online? Because they did. And who is the only online teaching support unit in all of LSA? That would be mine, yes.

And now I have exactly two months to force a new position posting through the current hiring freeze (because vital) at senior rank (because independent responsibility a must) do interviews (wholly online) and onboard the new sucker team member, possibly also online depending on when the lockdown lifts.

Two months.

While also running full speed with all the spring/summer faculty on our shoulders.

*bright, crazed smile*

I'm fine. This is fine. We're all fine, here.

Though the next person to ask me whether there's a timed option in Canvas Quizzes, when it says so right there in the settings, may not be.
