This came up in my feed during the pandemic ( or are we at the end? - in the middle? OMG I don't know). Funny/not funny to read the part about too many classes. God, what I wouldn't give to have my second or even my third community college job back. Or to be given more than one class with plummeting enrollment. This was almost too close to home for me. But then I got to lines about the feral cat named "waffles" and "the car for crying in" and I smiled hard, guffawed a little, and nearly choked on my 711 glass of wine.

To get a smile on this subject in these times from this adjunct is a feat. Thank you very much!
