I swear today has been stress stress stress so far. My 3yo shetland had to be loaded on the side of a main road because the transporter has a nutjob one on that apparently will fall over if they drive up a hill (so fuck knows how they're coping driving up the bloody country but hopefully he doesn't end up traumatising poor Fudge 😬). But she loaded without hesitation apparently and is now a good way into her journey. Mother's done something horrible to her wrist and is refusing to go to see a doctor about it even though she can't even open doors, and we just had a delivery of very expensive, very urgent electrical cables rock up with the boxes absolutely destroyed because the guy was loading them in the rain. What a bloody day- ill be glad when the pony is safely in her stable

I thought an AA degree would help get a little better job. Well, I'm stocking shelves at a grocery store. O.o

I graduated high school with my AA, so at least i'm not paying for a bunch of the BS gen ed classes

🙃I'm honestly just paying the bare minimum because paying the IRS taxes on whatever gets forgiven is going to be leagues cheaper than actually paying the loans back + interest

I put myself through college and at 36 am still paying student loans while also trying to save for my own kid's education.

Too expensive to go to at least four years of college with little guarantee of a decently paying job when you get out.

Yeah, it's really not cool for them to leave you scrambling like that.

A lot of unis are just straight shitshows right now

Yep, I think we also have a lawsuit going for wrongful termination since everyone got slashed so randomly for budget reasons

One of our neuro classes got canceled a week before finals. Took half the neuro cohort below full-time enrollment, and we got zero help in getting into classes because everything was waitlisted. That was a trip, and now i'm in a random criminology class lmao

I already have my resume out to a few other colleges for similar positions starting at like 70k/year. I kinda lost it when I took the pay cut due to health insurance costs going up and the university not compensating me for the difference (they did it for faculty but not staff of course)

~Savy~

08:20:55 Sav

Our uni cut a bunch of language programs, communications, and film studies. We are very much a theatre/music type school. Now my neuroscience & soc are on the chopping block, because who needs those in this climate?

We just added a BS Cybersecurity program in addition to our masters program, which I thought would maybe increase enrollment this semester. It did not

~Savy~

08:17:54 Sav

Yep, sounds about right. We got a new president after being $20 mil in debt. STEM cuts are coming and due in March, apparently. But hey, we're adding a women's flag football team! :D That'll save us

Stormsong Manor

08:16:51 Ven

Enrollment is down, faculty are leaving, the president's making more money than ever, and I'm making less than I did before my last raise because healthcare costs went up so violently :D :D :D

08:15:58 Sav

Don't ya love being at a university that's in debt, Ven?
My uni is struggling too, both my departments are falling apart rapidly >.>
