Academia, my friend.
What do you think I'm doing now?

(And the pay's (a bit) better than that, too. Shall I get my own croissant on the way to the balcony?)

Ha!
You're getting (metaphorically) fat upon the backs of the hardworking sessional staff who mark all the papers, deal with all the students yet only get paid during term time.


Grrrrr!

/rants but is secretly pleased to have a job this year again

Please don't remind me of my sessional days.
I've said it before - I'm one of the few people in the world to have welcomed my first income tax deduction: until I was almost 30, I'd never earned enough to have to pay it.

As you know
I was entirely jobless for July and some of August...then suddenly..."Oh, Chickenlady could you possibly teach EVERY STUDENT in the UK please?" (I'm paraphrasing here).

I'm looking forward to it as I have a rather large masochistic streak.
