My Old Nemesis

Marking, marking, marking. When will I ever learn? My third years have already got it sussed. They wisely told me that the only way to get out of having so much marking to do was to stop giving them work. It seems infinitely sensible when they explain it: they're happy - no work = no homework and I'm happy: they do no work = I have no marking...and yet, something just doesn't feel right about it.

They even promised not to dob me in to their year head or their mums and dads...
