I definitely owe an update to anyone who sent positive energy in my direction after I posted about my latest crisis. Last Thursday, I talked to the guy who's one step up from the Schedule Maker at College #1, and he expressed much sympathy -- not just the feelings kind, but the moral kind -- for me, as well as some embarrassment on behalf of the college for implementing changes so cavalierly. There didn't seem to be much he could do to help save my employment status, but he said he'd try something ...
and it worked, whatever it was. I am good for Fall: it's a slightly reduced course load, but at least it's scheduled for days on which I am actually available to teach it. So I shall not be immediately cast into the streets. ;-)
Thanks to any and all for their prayers and/or good wishes.
