Sorry for triggering! (&amp; thanks for the kind words) </p><p>Daniel is indeed one of the good ones, who cares as much as I do.</p><p>I think one aspect lost in conversation are clulteral norms between academic workloads. I’ve no idea what is expected at an R1 institution across the pond, nor across the Channel or elsewhere. For me, time *is* an issue. I have, an effective, 2 course load next semester that I am preparing for. One is an existing course that I am making better, the other is a brand new course. This is on top of the research I am trying to do, the grant writing and funding finding to grow my non existent team. Not to mention the citizenship, I sit of the departments research committee and I have also spent the last two weeks reviewing the assessment for seven of our modules before they go to the externals. (This doesn’t involve assessment moderation!).</p><p>My problem is that I care *too deeply* about my job. It’s hard fitting everything in…</p>
