WFH Day 406 - My coworker is ecstatic that there is less than three hours until our month-long break from work. Either that, or he found something dead to roll on.

WFH Day 388 - That morning when your coworker wakes up too early, and miscalculates the effect of the weather, but still waits for you to show up at 7:00.

On our one-year anniversary of working together, my co-worker and I went for an early, and extra-long walk at morning coffee. He didn’t want to leave his “device” at this “desk,” however.
WFH Day 327 - Fresh snow provides strong evidence that my co-worker got up — and got to work — before me.

WFH Day 323 - My coworker is happy that the cold snap is done and that we are able to continue our coffee time walks. He is absolutely ecstatic that his current favourite toy has been repaired, too.

WFH Day 264 - Things my coworker has taught me: if someone leaves for off-site work at 6:00 a.m., go *right* back to bed until it is both light out and it is coffee time. Maybe someone will deliver a coffee time treat to you.

At some point I realised that “we should write a paper” is the academic equivalent of “we should start a band”

TA evaluat'ns, like faculty evaluat'ns, are often biased in predictable ways. Using them as a metric for merit is deeply flawed. That the male co-author on this 👇🏿paper was surprised at results 🤣 will surprise few in the #EDI in #STEM world @FiRawle @shoshanahjacobs @dawnbazely
Students in an online class were told they had one of these 2 TAs. But behind the scenes, @EmilyKhazan, left, fulfilled TA duties for all 136 students. When student evaluations came in, though, guess which TA scored higher? #WomeninScience #womeninstem news.ufl.edu/2020/11/ta-bias…
