The automotive industry (in terms of people who create stuff ) is too small for someone from Jalopnik/Oppo to not know someone at blipshift and vice versa.

And don’t sell Oppo to short, sure majority of posts get maybe 10 views and never seen again , but ones that reach the sidebar can get 20k, 50k, even seen 100k views . So very likely a blipshift employee can just be a reader/lurker too!

The ones that pick up SEO terms and end up in people’s google suggestion card... things... really rocket off, but nobody ever browses the site from them!

The money sure isn’t going into our salaries, so it begs the question.

Many people wish they had a salary at all right now. But yes substitute teachers aren't exactly in demand right now.

Are things in-person up there? Are you guys operating at a reduced capacity or hybrid schedule or something like that?

Nope, a LOT of people (parents and teachers included) are complaining because the provincial government basically said “right, school back as usual’ with a few COVID mods. They’re claiming social distancing, but how do you socially distance 27 kids in a classroom (27 is the max class cap classes can have here). They don’t need to wear masks in the classroom, but do in the hallway. Lunches will be eaten in classrooms rather than cafeterias.....no idea how social distancing on buses is going to work....

They’ve also not told us substitutes ANYTHING on how school is going to work for us...

I don’t understand why masks would not be required in the classroom. If you are still having 27 people in a classroom you’re going to be breathing someone else’s breath. Social distancing in the hallways is even more concerning even assuming kids are putting on their masks. It only takes one.

Actual good information is hard to come by. It’s frustrating on all accounts because the more information the school gives the more angry parents and teachers they have. For instance, my college has decided to send out an email announcing that only one person will be allowed in a dorm room at a time so they’re moving half the student body to be in their own room. Predictably, they have announced it will happen this weekend without giving anyone an idea of how it will happen.

It’s just such a bad situation all around trying to compromise functionality with safety, but it seems like your district could be doing better. Stay safe out there.
