This is Really Happening

Today on first day of a new class, I was greeted by the assistant to the provost who told me that the building I am teaching my GED classes is undergoing renovation. My class could barely hear my lesson on effective listening over the tile being broken off the floor in the hall way. It was a little easier to hear when they finally finished pressure washing the windows outside.

The lowest part of the day was being trapped in the classroom with the student who had asked me out on a date while the construction workers were jackhammering literally right outside my door. And as I emailed my boss about the situation, my student told me to get off my facebook page (which I was not on) because it could be deemed a distraction.
