I fully expect my employer to use the ‘emergency’ implementation deferral for a *third* time. Hope I’m wrong. The first time, it tried to keep it secret from employees! wonkhe.com/wonk-corner/uc…

Very kind of a certain big publisher to ask me to review a manuscript but a two week deadline is way too short even outside graduation and induction weeks.

A lot of people rightly have a sense at least of basic Marxism - that your employer is inherently exploitative and does not deserve your enthusiasm. Work will never love you back. I think it’s a very healthy attitude. Bartleby got it right.
