So...I had class last night. It's a zoom class, and I'm the professor. Got home from day job, did some grading, and then cooked dinner. Figured I'd take some time to relax before class, and went down to the basement to play a videogame. Around 6:50, I go up stairs to get a few more bites before class starts at 7pm. I noticed i have a dozen new texts and voicemails on my phone. Turns out class was supposed to start at 6! My students are awesome, so they were actually really worried and were checking police report websites for accidents. I'm teaching a few classes this semester, and the other one is more regular and starts at 7pm, so i just flaked on it! Being the good guy that I am (and at the suggestion of my wife) i sent them all a Dunkin gift card as an apology for wasted their time (and scaring them!).
