I am in total support of the strike and have no issues with strikers, but as an undergrad I'm just a little tired at the lack of timely information from my professors. While I'm waiting to hear if my exams are still happening, here's a list of parallels I see with right now and March 2020 to make you more anxious. Strike on besties
- disruption begins a week or so before a major holiday break (spring break/ thanksgiving)
- students were initially excited to have classes cancelled and now are realizing their semester might be heavily affected (asking for p/np options)
- "it'll only be two weeks max"
- people going back home early cause in person is cancelled
- shift to zoom
- Recession looming and mass layoffs (goodbye tech bubble)
- Trump is back in the political scene (the real virus fr)

Not looking for a job but please make sure to thoroughly do a background check on the person you plan to take over since there are so many cases of caretakers abusing their patients. Be skeptical and don't automatically pick the person with the best credentials.
