Anyone else feel weirdly nostalgic for their last job after quitting it?!
I know I left for a good reason....better pay, clearer growth. But sometimes I miss the random Slack banter and knowing how to do everything without asking. That feeling ever hit you?

I’m so glad to know I’m not alone. I left my last job because the environment was very toxic and it was taking a toll on my mental health. However, I had the best coworkers—many of them became friends I still keep in touch with today. I really miss working with them, and like you said, knowing how to do everything without having to ask.

Absolutely yes, I was thinking about this just the other day, I choose growth other comfort and good environment, but I realized that sometimes having an opportunity to grow means that the state of the place you work is behind, otherwise your help wouldn't be needed! I miss some of the achievements that we already had in place in the old job, technically speaking, and the relationships that I built there. Nostalgia 100%

Hi Team,

How about y'all?

I tutor ESL after school and recently switched over to Zoom. Students are stating that they are unable to annotate. I’ve read that this is common for Chromebook users. Does anyone know of a way to bypass this and/or any video/picture tutorials? Otherwise, it looks like we’ll just have to add an additional open tab with a google share doc. Many thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide.

Our district voted on returning back to school with students in the classroom and some staying at home. We now have to teach students in the room and on Zoom at the same time. I’m not complaining but does anyone have any tips on the best and most effective way to get this done?
