Probably too busy t...Yes, you sure are Crazy Busy. Probably too busy to address this question...but here's something I've been thinking about related to work, which you touch on, in a way.<BR/><BR/>Yesterday two separate committees/groups I'm working sent emails asking me to do work (work that hadn't ever been mentioned before) and have it turned back within twenty four hours. This strikes me as just wrong. It means someone farther up in the academic food chain sits on something for a while and then it gets to be crunch time but the person who feels the crunch is *me* (and fellow colleagues in similar situations). Before email, I'm guessing such requests wouldn't have been possible at all. <BR/><BR/>I write things in my planner and do them. But I get radically annoyed when my schedule is altered because of these kinds of issues. Life always comes up. But should professors really be "on call" like this?gwinnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04840990153103781272noreply@blogger.com
