Parallel Universe

A collection of my daily thoughts... most of the time.

currently playing: The songs in my head...


Yesterday I signed up for tutoring high school students through work. I am pretty excited to finally get back into the tutoring thing (too bad I don't have the old white board...). It's on Tuesdays and Thursdays from like 4-6. One of the topics they need a tutor for is calculus! You know I'm excited. So, I signed up for almost every Tues/Thurs until I leave. I get a call a few min later from the dude that coordinates it:

Clyde: "Paul, I see that you have signed up for every slot we have available. I know you are interested, but I think maybe you should consider letting others have a chance to help out too."

Me: "Well, I guess that's fine. Just sign me up for when you need me."

Clyde: "Ok, that works."

Me: "Oh, and since it starts at 4... and we don't get off of work until 5... does that mean we have to get in to work extra early, or do these hours count towards our 40 a week?"

Clyde: "Gotta come in early."

Me: "Ok, yea.. I'll re-send my availability."


One other problem is that they don't tell you if you're going to tutor that day until the day of. So I basically will just go in early every Tues/Thurs in case they need me to go. When I say "go into work early"... I mean like 6:45, people. yea. If it starts at 4, I have to leave work by 3:45 to get there in time. Good times. :-)

(I might see if I am allowed to eat my lunch at my desk or something to not have to come in that early- we'll see)

Hope things are well with everyone.
