Condition Red

Monday, 19:25: Raz issues a call to arms against the lecturers who have not written their exams, suggesting a sit-in protest and adding random names to the email to add weight to his argument.

20:40: Ian Gent (who Raz sent the email to without knowing) discourages said protest by email.

20:58: Stevie proposes a student counter-strike against graduating with a pathetic degree instead.

22:33: Roja sends novel-length email taking back the intention to target lecturers.

22:43: Tom chips in as well, translating the original email from Raz-ese.

Tuesday, 09:47: Ian Gent forwards an email from the Principal calling staff to a mysterious hastily-organized meeting.

13:27: liquorsnob sends out an email announcing that the local AUT have arranged a potential pay deal.

14:21: The Principal sends out another email explaining the terms of the deal. Everyone is ecstatic.

14:22 to 14:35: Everyone in the entire department forwards the Principal's email to everyone else, not knowing that they had it already.

21:11 Tom Kelsey eventually replies to the original email, realizing that somehow he isn't on the staff list.

Thursday: The local AUT members' votes will be counted and it will be announced whether the staff have accepted its terms or not, and therefore if I can graduate properly in the foreseeable future. Will the world be saved once again? Tune in tomorrow to find out.

One of the AUT guys i was talking to had mentioned something about holding an EGM, to vote against the action and see about sacking the current local AUT committee. have you heard anything about this?
