    We've been using Microsoft Teams, and it's been pretty decent. Good conference call function. Could do video chat with it but we haven't yet. The conference calls work just fine for quick staff interaction. Good messaging feature.

    Bless all of you teachers who are going through this. You know your work is important, you don't need people telling you that. It might be more important now as you bring a small bit of normalcy to kids whose lives have been turned upside down, who may be fearful.

    Thank you, from the people who would have but have a lot on their plates right now and don't think to. Thank you so very much.

    I’ve had meetings on Skype, Microsoft Teams, Google Hangouts, Zoom and, I think, GoToMeeting. I’d like us - as a species - to settle on one.

    I'll blow a fucking hobo for a canister of disinfecting wipes at this point.

    Make it Google Hangouts then. That's the one I know how to use. There. Settled for all humanity. :)

    I found two containers (80 wipes each) because I got to the store as it opened last Saturday. I thought about taking a picture to show off. No such luck this morning.

    Your post made me think I should have asked my wife for a reward. :)

    I mean, you wouldn't need the canister if you didn't blow that hobo, you heathen liberal.

    Try screencastify to present with embedded YouTube videos.

    Some students just want to hear their teacher say things are going to be OK.

    For some kids it’s

    1. God
    2. Teacher






    3. Parents

    Thinking this time must be difficult for some female teachers. They're having sex with their SOs instead of students [/poinfiles].

    Let me just say for the record that all the recorded calls we're getting pushing burial insurance are in really poor taste.
