It’s Friday morning, and I’m at the Faculty Commons welcome bar. I have my Chromebook on my lap, because I am unable to position myself comfortably for typing here. All-in-all, getting anything done during my bar time has turned out to be as near to impossible as makes no never mind. Apart from physical discomfort based on the height of the bar and the lack of footrests on the bar stools, I just really miss my dual monitors and effortless access to my desktop file system and installed applications. So, I’ve resigned myself to tasks I can perform wholly online, like writing blog posts. I’ll be posting pretty much every Friday, and probably never at any other time.
Two hours is a long time to spend composing one blog post, but of course I am also responsible for answering the phone and helping people walk in during my shift. Time drags when you’re not getting anything done, but at least I only have one two hour shift per week. My next post in this category will be about my efforts to actually be productive while using my Chromebook. Who knows how many post I’ll end up making this morning. It’s only 9:00, and I’m here until 10:30. Yikes.
