In my Office we keep a running tally of how many new items have been added to our workload over the last 5 years and we are currently up to 126 items. I still love teaching the students, but with classes of students all in the mid to high 20's and all the extra

Since my boys have all moved out of home, I have been saving up money and doing Crypto and Share Trading for the last couple of years in earnest, and I hope to be out of the game and semi retire early in the next couple of years. If the markets had not crashed,

Hi Andrew<br>
<br>
Really sorry to lose you these lists are amazing but I understand why you are leaving things are different not sure how long I will survive now. So working on my Masters in Artificial Intelligence and then Phd.<br>
<br>
Hope you are ok yes it is becoming less popular and just about had enough of teaching with the behaviour of some students now and the increase in work load.<br>
<br>
Don’t blame people leaving I used to love teaching and was happy to have knocked back a double degree in electrical engineering but lately things have changed and workload has increased. There is no longer a life balance so I admit getting close to give it
 up as well.<br>
<br>
<br>
All the best in your new work.<br>
<br>

Subject: [Year 12 SofDev] Thanks to all<br>
<br>
Hi All<br>
<br>
Thanks to Kevork for these lists - they have been invaluable to me<br>
<br>
There are only a few people left who have been teaching in these subjects since Kevork started these email lists (and now one less).<br>
<br>
I know how useful to me these emails have been including the material shared, the peer review, the general camaraderie and the knowledge that I am not alone in the sea.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks also to everyone who has ever contributed - you are all part of the community. Sadly email is no longer trendy and so there are fewer regular contributors and in fact there are fewer teachers of these subjects<br>
<br>
It has been more than a year since I have even been in a classroom and I really cannot face going back to how classrooms are nowadays (not like the olden days in the mid 1980’s)<br>
<br>
So farewell<br>
<br>
Andrew Shortell<br>
<br>
(old and retired)<br>
