I've been getting some casual part time work from the (other) uni, which is good. Not quite enough to support myself year round, but a good start.
Over recent years, the academic support unit has been juggled through various administrative structures, and this year it started "fresh" with a new coordinator. He was told to plan a roster and not go over (or under) budget, but could never get an answer to what the budget actually was.
Turns out he guessed high, and
thosetoblamefor85% have basically forced him to cut everyone's hours by a third.
With three weeks to go in first semester when it is busy as hell.
Ahh, yes, I remember his bullshit.
