I was hoping that no one would turn up for today's class, but I was wrong. They did turn up, and they were even more bored and unenthusiastic than usual. I got yawned at, and two girls started chatting while I was lecturing. Since there were just about 10-12 people in the classroom, I was a bit miffed. I was also quite unhappy with the lecture I had prepared, and if I had the time, energy and the inclination, I would have completely revamped it. The bollocking I got on Monday for crossing the picket line has snuffed what little joy I would find in teaching. But, I suppose that is just the fatigue talking. Eight straight weeks of teaching can be quite tiring, even though I feel like my teaching load is pretty manageable. If I get the UWE job, my teaching load will likely be much heavier. But, we will cross that bridge when we reach it. No point in worrying about it for now.
