I Need A New Side Gig

I'd rather not have to have a side gig, to be honest.

But because I like to spend the money that comes from it, and it's difficult to make ends meet without it, I do maintain that gig. I teach. Online. Online English. With all the wrestling of ChatGPT and the like that implies.


As tired as I am of wrestling with artificial intelligence, I'm even more tired of other aspects of the course, some new (like having to meet with the students "in person" at the start of each semester) and some old (like a really crappy peer review process introduced last semester).

Class starts again next Monday. I've enjoyed a seven-week break between semesters, though our budget hasn't. So getting the money is good. So I've got to talk myself into remembering the classes have good things about them as well, like most of the students.

But I'd love a new side gig that didn't involve AI or conferences. I just don't know what that is. I'll have to keep looking.
