Its amazing how much more work you get done when absolutely no-one is here to distract you!
This is my first summer working in a school, and with everyone apart from 2 admin staff + 1 caretaker and myself off for a few weeks I'm spending my time alone getting through my large list of jobs.
I wish I knew how to relax - I should chill out a bit more!
Summer hols started over here at the end of June, pupils back start of September.
Its wonderful this time of year.
Our school broke up last Friday and with the exception of the office staff and us in ICT there is hardly a soul about.
Now we can get on with the real work
It's alright for some!
We've still got the rest of this week, and one more to survive!
But I don't work holidays :P
We've got until next thursday and then it'll be only me and the caretaker for weeks, bliss!
This week is good though, no year 11s, year 10s on work experiance, year 8s on a science trip, only 7s and 9s in, lovely and quiet
2 weeks exactly left. Then 2 peaceful days then go off on a camp with 2500 kids for a week...... What was I thinking?!
We broke up just over a week ago... i was really looking forward to a quiet summer doing jobs around the college. That was until i found out the School was rented out for the entire 8 weeks of the holiday so half the jobs i wanna do i cant because it's being used. And the accounts department are keeping me busy, so much for my quiet summer.
we break up this week, but i've decided to come in monday and tuesday to install some network cable in couple of offices. On top of things here, so should be in and out
Every summer I think its going to peaceful....
.... and then i discover that contractors are populating the place.
Cue - drilling, sawing, paint fumes...
.... and then the power is turned off ............ without warning!!! :? :? :?Originally Posted by cheesypete
Hide some asbestos tiles in the ceiling and wall cavities where they are working. That'll shut them up.drilling, sawing, paint fumes...
It'll be my first summer, looking forward to the time off but not until I've finally had the chance to do the jobs I have been trying to do all year. Never take on a job as an IT Technician AND Teacher Of ICT!
I dont work the holidays, but I am going to come in as there are a few problems that can only be sorted out without the constant day to day annoyance. I got a switch to 'sort out' a new room to cable and some stuff coming in on delivery (next bl00dy tuesday, why couldn't it have been this week). Apart from that, just waitin till my 2 weeks in Tunisia, have fun all, I wont be posting for a while.
hehe its the same here... I've scheduled a lot of jobs for August (2nd half of hols) due to cleaners stripping floors, varnishing etc. Computers are being moved left right and centre at the mo!
It would be lovely and quite usually, if we weren’t sat on the other side of a building site!
First day of hols and expected nice quiet six weeks.
Turned up to a gaggle of staff with nothing better to do then wait for me and offload their problems!
And bloody drilling all day ](*,)
