So I am trying to do school, as I do online school (Idaho virtual academy) and I had just finished my US Government test and was trying to turn it in. and of course it appears that k12's (the company that runs the school) servers have stopped working, and becuase I haven't saved it, I will probably have to take the test again, this also prevents me from doing other classes. ugh,

I hate technology problems, its always at the most inopportune time when something happens.

Its not my internet, because I can still use the internet as I am doing, writing this post.

These are the things that people don't seem to want to acknowledge when they try to turn us all into online schools. That sounds like a really lame experience.

LITERALLY THE WORST FEELING EVER. We have something similar here in NC, and it makes me just GAAAHHHHH

It's okay, you can get through to most of your teachers via phone, but the Moët obnoxious thing is scheduled maintenance, I understand all websites need downtime to do upgrades and the like, it's just their timing always sucks, it's always like the last weekend of the semester when you are trying to study for finals, they decide to do maintenance on the website for 6 hours so you have just wasted all of that time when you could have been studying. It has happened without fail for the past three years, which is all of the years I've done online school.

Yeah, that sounds like one of the sort of well meaning business decisions that are absolutely wrong for school. Good luck!
