An example of a work day for me...
So today is Thursday. I thought I was going to have a long day. Which for me means, I started work at noon and ended at 5. I had three students scheduled, and also had my own French class. So it was going to be work 12-1, my own class from 1-2, break from 2-3, then two more hours of work.
The thing about teaching is it requires almost constant attention and mental focus, and also talking, so by the end of it, I can be quite tired.
Butttttt, right after my own French class ended (which was also a lot of work), I got a late cancellation for my 3 PM class. And shortly afterwards, an email message to cancel my 4 PM class. Both of these were late, so I still got paid, for the activity of...walking along the beach.
So sometimes my life actually makes sense.
