I'm an English teacher, specifically an English as a Foreign Language teacher, and I've been working from home for almost 2 years. For context: I don't really have control over my schedule, that's all handled by administration, and they assign my groups every 5 weeks (a course's duration) and man, last course schedule was really good, I had a nice long break between classes and I was earning well because one of the groups is a training course for a company we work with, the rest are regular students, I had to wake up earlier but it was worth it, I get paid double.

By next course, I got reassigned, first I don't have my training group anymore (and no, they never tell us why we are reassigned nor give us any warning) and the thing is, my old schedule was really convenient, I finished early and I was able to do many things in the afternoon, now I finish later, work an extra day and earn less, cool.

It's not a big deal, I don't work that much compared to many many many other people. but man, not even because I asked to keep it like that.

Cool.
