Ahhhhh - any other lecturers out there marking?

[Jazzicatz]

Hate it hate it hate it!!!!

Am I really the only one?????

Bump

DH is, if that's any consolation, Jazzi!

Is he muttering and swearing and losing the will to live??

He's gone into the office (so quite possibly) - however, we are getting new coffee machine delivered today, so think that may cheer him up. Have they all answered the same question, perchance?

Yes - and badly - really badly!

I was last week and today I received 2 emails, one from the Programme Director complimenting us all on the quality of our feedback, and another from the chief admin person thanking us for doing it on time

Appreciation - this has never happened before - it feels weird

Wow Kathy - what are they after?

You cynics! I'm in HE admin and do tend to thank academic colleagues a lot - makes life nicer for all of us... plus I used to be an academic, albeit briefly, so do have lots of sympathy.

Hi Jazzicat
You are not alone - I've got 4 hours of it today as I decided I needed a massive session so that I get on top of it.
Aaaaaagh. I hate it hate it too x

I would actually like to put it all on the fire, put my feet up with a cuppa and watch telly.

Hahaha - so would I. It just takes so long and is so demoralising!

Thank god I have finished!!!

What? Finished all of it?
What ever subject you teach I want to teach that!
Still another 120ish to go here.
Please help me - I am going to jack it in and head for hills, particularly on such a blardy miserable day!!
Well done Jazz xx

I have finished - only the first load. Will have the second report to mark at the end of April. How's it going bubblesbabe?

Have got through two loads with another lot left to mark and then the rest coming in on Mar 28th - two days after I move house!! should be a fun Easter!!!
