Since this week is Winter Break for all NYC schools, I will not be going to observe this coming Wednesday. I also have the unfortunate news that on Wednesday, March 23rd, I have jury duty! Not unfortunate in that I don't want to serve, but in that jury duty could not only mess with my Wednesday but the rest of the week as well. Tuesdays aren't good days for observing for me because of all the running around needed in order to get to and from class the night before--I'm just plain tired on Tuesdays. Hopefully, A) I won't get picked for jury duty and they'll only keep me Wednesday and Thursday, or B) We miraculously have class online or half online that Monday and I can function efficiently that Tuesday to observe instead. (Hint, hint, wink, wink)
Oh well. I'm done with my rant. Hopefully the next few weeks of observation will go much smoother than last week so I can get this case study show on the road.
Sorry! I know there is always a moral battle inside one's head about jury duty. Someone has to do it, and it is a great thing, but it always messes evryone's schedule. We are too busy lol! My only advice is that frequently students are able to delay it, Bring a copy of your schedule, so if you get picked you could be skipped. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteWondering what that hint was... *_^
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for the silver lining here. Lots of downtime during jury duty so you can catch up on reading the QRI-5!
ReplyDeleteThings could be perfectly okay as long as the class that I'm observing stays on schedule. If so, I could be done with observations for this course and on to the next course. We will just have to keep our fingers crossed that all goes smoothly.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the hint hint was my own little hope that things will align and work out scheduling wise with class. If not, I will still figure something out.
ReplyDeleteI remember I had to go in for jury dury just weeks after my 18th birthday and it was not a great experience. I'll just leave it at that! lol
ReplyDeleteI've had to go in before. I know what I'm in for. I didn't get picked to serve last time, but it was extremely annoying going in for two days sitting all day long.
