  • First Day On the Job + Update with guy R

    So yesterday and today the instructor has been e-mailing me TONS and TONS of hw assignments. They're more like packages..lol students from a total of 2 classes. He's highly vouching for himself which is good. I'm reading most of the stuff I'm grading and especially the right answers, it's quite insightful to stuff that I need to keep in check..lol I guess thats how I should say it.

    So he tells me that they're worth 20pts each package. I'm looking at it and ask..where's the distribution of the pts to each assignment? He tells me to figure it out myself. WOW...okay..so it's based all on my own judgement. Sure...Okay...give more pts to longer and harder problems and less to small ones. Personally, I hate grading the ones which you have to answer in paragraphs and further explain. Most students are some where else, yet others are right on track and are staying up there which is really good!

     

    Oh ya..my Accounting 120B class test, in class & take home test got me a 91/100. YEAH!!! But I saw so many mistakes...even the instructor pointed it out to me on my paper. My math was wrong..I looked it and..dude blown me away..I don't know what I did...haha But I'm happy. Shows how good I can be in concentrating and that I need to pay attention to information.


    About R, I came to the decision to go out on a date with him. But I did say that I'm not sure when I'd be able to do so. I'm busy.....being a TA is tedious and just..ya it's crap I tell ya! haha It's not as great as I thought.  I'll see how things develop. If things turn out good..hey I'll stick around if not, well I don't really plan to get initmate with the guy unless unless....it's time? lol...ha! I don't wanna get sucked in by the whole crushing on each other thing. It's so overkill or overdone or etc...I don't know. You get the picture. I think we'd be able to continue being friends if this doesn't work out. Actually I've high confidence in that for some odd reason. Hey it's a good thing. Something new! I always doubted my crushes..this one..WOW...not even. This one makes me feel at ease.

     

    Is this how we're suppose to feel? Or is this just me after 5 yrs and so many months? lol...dang...I was hoping for a 10 yr streak..haha

    i used to be TA, and it was also only 5-hr per week.  and i worked in a research lab for 15-hr per week, plus private tutoring outside of school.. made up over 20-hr per wk of work!

    well i think u should enjoy this period of guessing and wondering feeling.  once u get older or get settled down, u'll no longer feel the bittersweet girly experience.  ENJOY!

    I woke up thinking this very morning. 1 answer to all my solutions with men.

    Let them do all the work and thinking. Just don't get sucked in by their charm and start drooling over them..haha

    Oh these poor kids, I've come to realize how great of a power the instructor has bestowed upon me! Muahahaha!!!

    Sounds like you'll get some good experience from this job as well as getting to wield some power over the students :P

    That's good that you're gonna give this thing with R a try.  At least you already feel comfortable with him.  It'll make the situation alot more relaxed.

    Well Peachey, to me, it doesn't matter. Just as long as your okay with it. You name it and you got it! ;)

    Sirendipity: I don't think the instructor is going to be looking over the papers. Somehow he told me to use my own judgement and discretion upon grading iss all. But he should look them over for his students own benefit..lol *evil laugh* The short answers and essays really doesn't help. ={

    Looks like you're doing a good job as a TA.  Hmm... something I've always wondered, does the teacher normally check over the papers?  

    As for R, I hope things work out for you.  He sounds great.  =)

    Haha, well congratulations on the test result. As for the job, well, you might start seeing where points should go and everything when you get the hang of it.

    well, both Peachey and Ren Ren said it but I'll say it again - sounds like you a doing a good job if it is tedious.  Doesn't sound like a particularly supportive envivonment though to say "figure it out yourself", mind you, I suppose it means he can trust you to do it.

    Good for you for going on the date thing =)  It's cool that you feel at ease with this guy.  I know what you mean about self doubt - it totally sucks.

    Sounds like you're being a good TA and actually paying attention the students homework. I've always kinda doubted my TAs ability to grade my paper. It just didn't seem like they paid too much attention to my hard work. Good job girl! Add oil!

    Oh, also you wield tremendous power over the students for whom you're grading homework. Muah-ah-ah-ah. ;D

    I used to work on campus for the Nutrition & Food Science dept. I'd copy blank tests and sh*t. Nobody ever bribed me. =( haha.

    It sounds like you're pretty comfortable with R which is a fantastic thing. Don't think so hard or worry so much about where the both of you are "heading." Don't worry about the future. One day at a time, babes.
