Nearing the finish line

There really is a guilty pleasure in goofing off at work. I will attempt a justification by saying that literally all of my work is complete. That is the nature of a contract job. My exams are corrected and passed in. My final marks are compiled and put into the system (plus a hard copy passed in to the secretary). My ISSP reports are finished and duly filed. My office is straightened up, and the books and reports are neatly left on the desk for whoever fills my place in September.

There is nothing left to do but wait to hear the dulcet notes of that corpulent woman….

I even offered to help teachers finish up what they are doing, and no one needed any help.

I think this is the first time in my life that I am AHEAD of schedule (I’m at work until Friday). At least tomorrow there is the awards assembly.

I should have taken a book.

Who would have thought that I would come to work and have absolutely nothing to do? (Before I start getting too many emails begging for my laid back job, send me a note asking what exactly I’ve had to endure for the past several months). Really, a couple of slack days do not counterbalance that ordeal.

So with all of this said, I am sitting at the computer honing my craft, while the rest of the teachers are scrambling to finish year end work. Tee hee.
